Love John Oliver! His willingness to go where God's called him and to share what he's learning with others was a huge asset when I decided to go all in. Beyond thankful for the two of you and your encouragement and wisdom!
Loved this perspective, and that John has been an inspiration to you with his "I"m leaving texts" (my favorite kind of news trusted coworkers share with each other). Made me reflect on my own corporate leaving, and how a huge part of how I got there was "Am I actually trusting in God and HIS provision, or does my faith actually mostly look like clinging to a "safe" life?" So glad you're on the outside now.
I really like this post! I’ve experienced a similar situation. I have a friend that I consider a son. He’s 35, I’m 60. I also consider him my mentor. I’ve seen him grow and now out pace me and it’s been great!
It is so true that life has million perspectives and we can learn from each one - no matter the age, ethnicity, social background etc. Loved his piece
That is true. We even learn from people we disagree with which is a hard thing.

He is wise beyond his years. As are you my friend. Blessings!

Thank you Emily. Yes, it helps so much to have trusted sounding boards. He's a great one!
Wonderful! I keep trying to share some of these on Facebook, but I might not be clicking the correct buttons.😅
Facebook will prevent wide sharing. Put a picture in your post and then put the link in the first comment

I’ll give you 2! He is fearless in his pursuit of goals and he goes all in to learn about things that interest him.
That is awesome! I bet he learns from you too! John was a big reason why I decided to make the jump.
That is so cool! What’s one of the biggest lessons you’ve learned from him?
