But at age 39, this “normie” ventured outside the United States for the first time, finding himself in Rwanda. There, he touched the extraordinary and discovered the power of doing The Unright Thing.
Today, he inspires audiences to break free from defaults, expectations, and ‘shoulds’ by learning to Change on Purpose.
In doing so, they not only navigate uncertainty with renewed energy but also open the door to a richer, more fulfilling life and work.
