Give The Gift of MORE – A December Campaign
A Call To Embrace What Makes Us Uniquely Human In the Age of AI
In a world accelerating faster than at any point in human history, we need reminders — anchors — that keep us grounded in what matters most. The MORE Effect was written for that purpose: to help people stay present, protect what’s human, and Become More in an AI-first, always-on world.
This month, I’m sharing 25 short daily videos — stories, principles, and reflections designed to help people reconnect with their potential and rediscover the traits that make us uniquely human: courage, hope, optimism, and the pursuit of all three.
If you know someone who needs encouragement…
Someone navigating change…
Someone who could use a reminder of their strength, their possibility, and their humanity…
Give them the Gift of MORE.
Below, you’ll find every episode in the 25-day series. Watch them. Share them. Pass them forward.
Because the greatest gift we can give — in any season — is helping someone else Become More.
