***There’s a little cursing in this episode – just a warning in case you don’t like that kind of thing =)***
Today I have a really amazing guest to introduce to you, and if I had to give him a job title I’d have to say he’s an inspirist, because no matter what hat he happens to be wearing, this guy will inspire you. Right now he’s a fine art photographer, a writer, a podcaster, and a consultant to people who are striving to live more passionate, meaningful lives.
I met him on Facebook when I asked a desperate question to one of my artist groups about starting this very podcast and his encouraging response was the only one I got that day. He thought it was possible, he thought I could do it, and I know it’s a little silly on my end, but the fact that a complete stranger believed in my dream was really validating.
So I went right to his website, signed up for his newsletter and eagerly awaited the arrival of his free eBook, Creators 2.0 How to Find Your Purpose, Build Sustainable Growth, and Change the World, which is exactly what I’m trying to do here, with your help of course. Soon after, he signed up for my art newsletter and we became email buddies, but it wasn’t until he asked me to come on his podcast, Taking the Leap, that I discovered he was also a rescue advocate and had spent some years as a dog trainer.
Isn’t it crazy how the universe just lines things up sometimes? Well today to share with you his journey through the rescue world and the story of how he met a very special dog named Mikka.
