    With a burning desire to “get out into the world” and a growing passion for entrepreneurship, Stacey became an “accidental entrepreneur” at the age of 25, with a startup born out of her Harvard Business School assignment. After her first company raised millions of dollars, was acquired, and she went on to build several tech ventures, she felt that she was burning the candle at both ends. Stacey took a trip to India, where she immersed in the realm of wisdom traditions, collective wholeness, and the inner landscape. Ever since then, Stacey has integrated the notion of conscious leadership and authenticity into the world of business to co-found the Center of Entrepreneurship and Technology at UC Berkeley, run for U.S. Congress, and build her latest venture Ygrene Energy Fund. -------------------------- >>TIME FRAME> ABOUT STACEY and MARIA > MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE> CONNECTED WITH 2TF > MUSIC Quietly Confident Outlook - Stevens Grenga Efficiency - Manuel Ochoa Enjoy the Ride - Simon Pettersson
