Message from Jimmie Johnson, Host of The Staying The Course Podcast:Thank you for tuning into the Staying The Course Podcast. Before you dive into the content I have created, I wanted to share with you my heart and desire behind this project. For a long time, pre-dating my stint working as a television journalist, I always had a desire to sit down and interview people from all different walks of life and share their stories. So, when thinking about how I could truly make impact in the lives of so many, I had a “You Do It” moment. Yeah. One of those moments where you try to talk yourself out of an idea but that idea never dies. I believe we have all have been in that space wondering, what is my purpose and how can I make a difference on this earth? The only problem is when it comes to acting on those dreams, some of us never go any further than dreaming. We never put the A in action ahead of our desires. Therefore, we never see any results. My hope is to help you bridge that gap, by introducing you to some of the most influential thought-leaders around the globe. People I believe will inspire, uplift and motivate you because — “You’re called to stay the course.”
