Mike Ragsdale – Founder of The 30A® Company – recently joined Kristy Holditch and Ali Diamond of the Emerald Coast Storytellers podcast to discuss world travels, entrepreneurship, storytelling and the art of living. Mike is the father of four children, a husband of 29 years, and a lifelong entrepreneur and explorer. His extraordinary career highlights are just a part of an even more fascinating journey to explore 60 countries so far. Just a few of his many adventures include attending a wedding in a remote village in Rajasthan, partying with Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion, taking the slow boat up Myanmar’s Irrawaddy River, getting caught up in a prison riot in Bali, eating scorpions in Cambodia, and even spending a week on Necker Island with Sir Richard Branson. Mike and his wife Angela (along with their Maltese pup, Ernie) are currently on yet another trip around the world.

This inspiring interview coaches you to pursue the life of your dreams, with a focus not on wealth accumulation, but on the accumulation of new stories to share:
