Journey to the Sunnyside

Welcome to Journey to the Sunnyside! Today we’ve got an exciting episode for you. I’m joined by Cecily Mak—a writer, podcast host, co-founder of Wisdom Ventures, and a mom of two. Cecily’s journey into mindful living and personal transformation led her to create the ClearLife Movement. ClearLife is all about living without “dimmers”—those habits or behaviors that dull our experience and keep us from being fully present.

We’re going to dive into Cecily’s personal story, her take on alcohol as a habit versus addiction, and how she’s challenging traditional models of sobriety. 

Cecily is a co-founding general partner at Wisdom Ventures a fund committed to consciously harnessing the power of business to co-create a more compassionate and thriving world. The firm holds a very small position in Sunnyside, as an early investor.
