The Ever-Changing World of Business
Business is everywhere. It’s not just the big corporations you see on the news or the online stores you shop from—it’s the coffee shop down the street, the freelance designer working from home, and even the person selling handmade crafts on Etsy.

It’s about creativity, strategy, and understanding people.

Become the Most Powerful Version of Yourself
The legend in the mountain village of Thistle was as old as the stones: to become the most powerful version of oneself, one must climb the Summit of Ascension and endure the Five Fires.
