Named by Tom Peters in his top 5 most influential entrepreneurs in the world, Taddy is passionate about Consciousness-Based Education, a system of education to develop a student's full potential. He leads the Maharishi Institute, winning first prize in a global competition to find the world’s most promising and innovative education initiative.   LINKS   Maharishi Institute website https://www.miu.edu   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Happy listening!   © 2023 Gary Bertwistle.  All Rights Reserved.
