I have these conversations so much and with the individuals permission, i wanted to put this episode on the podcast because this is a non scripted, real life conversation and i believe someone can take something from this. Hope you get some value and perspective from this episode.

Dennis used his background in adolescent development, sociology and mental health to develop the framework for a social group to address what it meant to be a man in society. Dennis now works with individuals, schools and organizations all over the country providing professional development, assembly programming, motivational speaking and life coaching.

I think there is a false narrative now a days, where people are doing things only because its about the money. And then they struggle with their happiness because they aren't becoming their authentic self. I have my own experiences in life where I made decisions only for the money, and the money when i earned it, never made me happy when i did. I then made a shift to doing something that I enjoy, and then realizing that the money will come. I hope you can learn and self reflect on what makes you happy? If your every day life is consumed with things that make you money but you are not happy, I promise you that you can do what makes you happy AND make money. Thanks for letting me share.
