In addition to his business, he has created the space to be part of a local band – Chili Guys – and also be present for his family and friends. They dive into the transformative power of passion projects — those meaningful, energizing pursuits that fuel your creativity and add purpose to your life. Whether you’re looking to reignite your spark, explore a side hustle, or simply reconnect with your interests, passion projects can be the key to a more fulfilling, balanced life. Join us as we explore what makes a passion project different from your typical hobby, how to carve out time for what you love, and real-life stories of people who’ve built incredible things from their passions — without quitting their day jobs. What You’ll Learn: The difference between a hobby and a passion project Why passion projects matter for your mental health and motivation How to identify what you're passionate about (even if you're unsure) Strategies to start — and stick with — your passion project Real-life examples and inspiring stories How passion projects can lead to personal growth, community, and even income Favorite Quote from the Episode: “We should never die with music inside.” Wayne Dyer Stay Connected: If this episode inspired you to start (or restart) a passion project, we’d love to hear from you!
