Good Faith Energy is more than just a name--it's a way of life. Mohammed has put his heart and soul into the company, and is now giving back in more ways than one, from university presentations to philanthropy. Today, you can get a peek into Mo's personal life, and learn what challenges have driven him to be an entrepreneur who's invested in the community's future.

Today's episode of Thinking Green is dedicated to Mo's father and all that he did to help Mohammed become who he is today. He's tracing back his father's history and how he brought his family a secure life in Canada before he passed away. That grief and hardship really shaped Mohammed, from the nine-year-old child who didn't understand what had happened to the successful leader in environmentally-friendly living. He's also here to catch us up on the impact projects that Good Faith Energy is working on recently, from food deserts to equine therapy. Tune in to today's episode to get a fuller picture of who Mohammed is as a person and as a leader, and to get up to speed on what his company is doing to better the community. 

 

What You'll Learn:

  • How Mohammed came to realize he needed to come out of his shell and be proud of his accomplishments, from awards to lasting legacies
  • Why the concept of 'sustenance' carries so much weight for Mohammed and his family
  • What impact projects Good Faith Energy has been working on since the last episode of Thinking Green.
  • And so much more!

 

Favorite Quote: 

"It's okay to be you. I want you to be YOU--I don't want you to hide who you are, with a version at work and a different version at home. It's okay to share your joy and passion. Don't hide who you are."
