Danny Seo was just 19 years old when the Washington Post wrote an article about him, rhetorically asking their readership: “Is this the next Martha Stewart?” At the time, the comparison felt lofty and overwhelming to Danny… but the reality is, over the past twenty years, Danny has created a new space all his own as a sustainable style expert and eco-living consultant for celebrities and major national media outlets. Basically, he was green before green was cool. In fact, he was so ahead of the curve that he was literally BORN on Earth Day. (no, seriously!)What many don’t know is just how committed Danny really is to the cause… he was so called to help the planet that he chose it over finishing his formal education, dropping out of High School to instead lobby for environmental issues as a teenager.While it may have seemed a risky strategy at the time – especially back in the 90s, before saving the environment was such a big topic – eventually, it paid off.From landing on Oprah’s couch at just 19 to collaborating with A-list celebrities, such as Drew Barrymore and Kerry Washington, Danny reveals how he turned his love for the Earth into a vibrant career dedicated to making the world a greener, better place.We’ll also hear about his decade+ love for Boiron, the French Homeopathic company who makes many of the products you may already use in your own home.Danny shares insider secrets from his recent star-packed trip to Boiron’s French HQ, and why aligning with brands who you believe in is so important in today’s world.Danny is smart and successful, humble and hilarious… so come along as he spills his secrets to making it BIG in business by doing things on your own terms, and remaining authentic and aligned with your belief systems.*Today’s episode is presented by Boiron USA.[0:45] Danny Seo talking about how he does what he does because he is mission driven [9:25] Danny Seo explains how his passion for the planet became a career and the challenges he faced as a high school drop out [11:11] Danny Seo talks about how he was given the opportunity to write a book and it changed the trajectory of his career [17:55] Danny Seo explains the cultural shift of people caring for the planet [20:30] Danny Seo talks about Boiron and why he loves the brand [32:00] Danny Seo explains how a media trip works and how fortunate he has been to experience them [33:33] Danny Seo tells what he is working on next Key Takeaways [2:24] Danny Seo reflecting about his birthday being on Earth Day and seeing all the sadness in the world and at the age of 12 he decided to do something about it[14:00] Danny Seo reflects on how he began working with celebrities and he would jump at every opportunity he was given [26:59] Danny Seo reflects on the trip to France with Boiron and how educational it was Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
