Picture if you will a young man and a this mullet, arriving with backpack in hand at Vancouver international airport back in 2005. This man has only a few dollars to his name, and the feeling he had finally arrived.


But having just travelled thousands of miles to get here, his real journey, the one that REALLY mattered, was only beginning. This is a voyage all of us must take, but only some ever finish.


In this episode of The Authentic You Podcast we begin to introduce remedies for employee burnout, and I share my real life underdog story and the one simple yet profound idea that completely transformed my life.


We’ll also go back into history, to small sleepy town in Brazil where not that long ago a new hell was born. It’s the incredible true story of the hell of Serra Pelada, where men became slaves to their jobs. In this story, get ready for a shock and surprise ending we can all learn from.

WHAT IS THE INSPIRED? WHO IS IT DESIGNED FOR? 

​

In the fall of 2017 I founded The-Inspired.com as my way of contributing back to the world.  Never before has so much powerful, educational, informative life changing knowledge been available to us online. The Inspired is a BEST oF compilation of those sources, with a specific goal in mind...​

 

I heard something recently that I know rings true: The reason most people don't reach their goals in life is because they don't have a clear idea of what their goals are. And then for those who do have a clear vision, they don't stick with the daily process of working on reaching those goals until the job is done.  

 

What we do each day matters.  From new or seasoned professionals in the business world, retirees in their 50's to golden years, and for stay at home moms or dads, this website is designed for you.  Moving forward in your journey means living a better life.  It means improving your career, reducing  stress or anxiety. It means finding fulfillment in each day, and purpose in life, at any age.  

 

Subscribe to the Newsletter for Tools, Tactics & Inspired Daily Rituals:  Every journey should start with practical, and easy to follow advice. In these articles I'll share some of the most under-used, under-rated, and misunderstood tools, tactics, and habits in life. Tools and tactics to help you understand your strengths, passions and goals, and get you working towards improving your situation today. Subscribe now!  It's 100% free and I'll aim to send out a newsletter once a month.
