Love is Free, Guac is Extra and Other Important Perspectives

New author, Monty Moran, inspires and entertains us in his first book, Love is Free, Guac is Extra. So of course we had to cull some of our favorite Monty Moran quotes to share here.

A Book About Life, Love and Leadership

This is not your typical business book — though there’s plenty of that for those who are interested in learning how to build better companies. You’ll enjoy the stories and life journey of a man and who led himself and a couple companies to tremendous success by building a culture of love, encouragement and empowerment. You’ll also hear confessions of personal vulnerability and how Monty overcame fears and doubt.

Profound, inspiring, uplifting, and well written Love is Free, Guac is Extra contains an important message and theme for these times. 

Love is Free is a book about leadership and love. Even if you’re not a leader of others, we are ever leaders of ourselves. In fact, many of these principles are equally applicable to personal growth and serve as a reminder of the importance of a positive, growth mindset for a happy life.

You can learn any skill you need, but attitude and gratitude are the foundation of a happy and successful life.

Connected – a Search for Unity

Monty Moran is a visionary leader on a mission to uplift and elevate others and humanity as a whole. His next project is a crusade to reveal that there is far more that unites us than divides us. That we — humanity — are kindreds, more alike than different in our need and aspirations for love and meaning, connection and contribution.

We’ve watched all the trailers and eagerly await the release of his next project titled, CONNECTED: A Search for Unity. The Connected docuseries beings airing through PBS, beginning in February of 2021. I hope they release them all so we can binge watch it throughout the week! ?
