A Ph.D. from Yale University, Rob coined the term, “luxury beliefs”, which refers to the elitism we see in the western world when it comes to progressive ideologies; beliefs, most times radical, that can be held with no consequences to the people championing them - while having a negative impact on everyone else. We see it all the time - the loudest voices for open border policies living in gated communities, or celebrities scolding their fans on climate change while attending worldwide galas via their private jets. Rob takes us through the psychology behind this current brand of elitism, and gives some heart wrenching insight into his own upbringing within the U.S. foster care system. A true American story, Rob details his life coming from broken homes and hopelessness, to serving his country and becoming a new voice for the importance of family. Learn more about your ad choices.

The conversation begins with Rowe introducing his mikeroweWORKS Foundation, aimed at promoting opportunities in skilled trades that don't require a four-year degree, providing insights into success stories of the program participants. The discussion evolves to touch upon the societal perceptions of alternative education, including vocational training, in comparison to traditional degrees. They debate if cultural hierarchy will continue to mirror the economic hierarchy and how technology has impacted access to education.
