026 — What REALLY Makes Us Happy with Mitzi Perdue
Today’s fascinating guest is the daughter of the President and Founder of the Sheraton hotel chain, and wife of the late Frank Perdue, second generation of the famed poultry company that today operates in more than 50 countries. An entrepreneur herself, Mitzi founded CERES Farms in 1974, a vineyard selling grapes to some of today’s most well-known wine brands.
In 2019, Mitizi attended a lecture about human trafficking that deeply troubled her. With a desire to be part of the solution to this atrocity, she went on that same year to found an organization called Win This Fight.
A woman still committed to making a huge difference at 79 years of age, today’s conversation barely scratches the surface of everything Mitz has done and continues to do.
In today’s inspiring conversation, you’ll hear Dr. Fred and Mitzi Perdue speak about:
An epiphany concerning the purpose of life Mitizi had one day while experiencing “runner’s high”
The crucial statement Mitzi’s father made about money that was seared into her brain and heart
How Mitzi uses her resources and talents to increase happiness and decrease misery
A profound quote from Mother Teresa...and the beautiful story behind it
What Mitzi is doing to combat human trafficking, and how it has the potential to raise $100 million
How Mitzi’s charity ensures that funds donated will only go to credible anti-human trafficking organizations
A shocking revelation about a well-funded “charity” that’s actually wants to stop traffickers from getting prosecuted
The movie-like story of how Mitzi was gifted a 69-karat ruby as a donation
The three ways organizations attempt to fight human trafficking—and an exciting global project that’s attempting to discover the most powerful methods
What Plato, Martin Luther King Jr…. and Mitzi’s mom have to say about success
