At EarthX 2025, Lawrence Ford, Founder & CEO of Conscious Capital Foundation, sits down with Anthony Samadani of Good News Network to explore why purpose-led storytelling is not optional anymore. Together, they unpack the mindset shift behind “Why me? Why now?”, the daily discipline of returning to your inner light, and a practical solution for anyone overwhelmed by the news: consume two to five minutes of good news each day.

Watch the full conversation for insights you can apply immediately: how to build confidence through focus, how to say no to misaligned opportunities, and how media can become a force for good.
