Brian Vaszily (pronounced "vay zlee") is a bestselling author, entrepreneur, and speaker/organizer whose mission is to help others explore, experience and enjoy life more intensely while bypassing the traps that would hamper that goal. He believes the biggest issue facing the U.S. and Western world today is a growing sense of insignificance and disconnect that is primarily driven by rampant consumerism. This is resulting in unhappiness and apathy which in turn is driving many of the major crises of our time.

Or in other words: screw what the marketers want you to do, buy and believe so that they can grow richer off of you, this is your one sure shot at life so right now is the time to seek out, dive in and really live!

Vaszily has authored and co-authored several books including the acclaimed novella Beyond Stone and Steel, and he also writes the popular How We Get You columns at SixWise.com. Most of all he is a father, husband, son, explorer, messenger, and humble appreciator.
