They motivate people to engage in healthy laughter for a vibrant, uplifting, and transformative shift in all aspects of their lives. They have found spontaneous laughter helps when negotiating contracts and in other business settings -- and they teach that to thousands at seminars.

On this episode of “The Millennial and Me” we talk about survival skills for the backwoods and the board room. Dan Edmonds is someone who’s had a life of ups and downs. He looked at the world and saw people who were never taught how to survive. He decided he didn’t want that for his children so he set out to teach them what they needed to know. Dan’s journey led him to the realization that the skills he was teaching his children were skills that everyone, young and old, need to learn. That led to Rangers Ridge, and what Dan calls the “Today I Will” lifestyle.
