Summary: "Most people go through life avoiding problems. I believe the bigger the problem you take on, the bigger your life," says Michael Trainer in this sixth edition of SRO Conversations. As the U.S. Executive Producer for the Global Citizen Festival, Trainer helped galvanize one of the largest gatherings of people in NYC to help commit to alleviate poverty. Over 60,000 people were in attendance in 2012 to listen to musicians like Neil Young to John Legend. An intrepid traveler himself, Trainer eloquently tells of his most recent trip to Patagonia and how he traveled without a plan and on a limited budget. Tune in here for the full discussion on the importance of retreating, being spontaneous, taking risks, and critically thinking about a life of service.
