Скачать или смотреть Rejecting Conformity and Creating Your Own Vision with Joe Barnes - Ep67

Do you feel like you're on a prescribed path, chasing a pot of gold that may never materialize? In this episode of Leading Visionaries, host Anjel B. Hartwell interviews Joe Barnes, author of The Rebel Code and Escape the System, who shares his journey of breaking free from conventional expectations to live life on his own terms.


Joe describes his early questioning of the "chase" of a traditional career, feeling a "repulsion" towards the prescribed path and his early vision of inspiring others, leading him to become an author. He shares the self-doubt he faced, and the resistance from his parents who hoped he'd choose a more traditional profession. Joe reveals that his initial steps were met with discouragement but he persevered, driven by his belief in doing what he felt was right.


Discover how Joe's heart-led decisions, much like those of Nelson Mandela, led him down a difficult path with eventual great reward. He challenges the notion of "fitting in," suggesting that perhaps you're meant to create and lead, not follow. He also discusses the challenges of monetizing his passion for writing, and shares his most memorable reader story and a bizarre book sale involving a wasp catcher. In a powerful conclusion, Joe shares his latest vision: a motivational journal to help others create the life of their dreams.
