101. Writing Your Own Uncommon Story w/Alejandro Avendano aka the Million Friends Guy

On today's episode I talk with Alejandro Avendano aka the Million Friends Guy, who is on a mission to build an impactful network, make the world a better place, and leave a legacy for his son Noah.

Alejandro is a runner, a husband, a father, friend, and much more! He recently added published author to that list with the launch of his children's book, Noah's Space Ark. His book features 12 different animal characters that serve as archetypes for  important character traits (i.e. Be Kind like Tony the Rabbit, modeled after motivational speaker Tony Robins). His book is a fantastic way to introduce children to important qualities they should aspire to cultivate in their own lives! 

We also discuss the importance of reading regularly to our children, helping them to embrace their own curious nature, and the practical ways in which we can make reading simple and fun! 

Alejandro shares about his background growing up, and how time away from his family forced him to create his own family through friendships. He saw how important relationships are in his own life, and he continues to prioritize intentional friendships and community even now as he is married and growing his family. 

Enjoy this conversation, and the message of adventure and hope that Alejandro is spreading with his own life and art! You can learn more about Alejandro by following him on instagram
