Larry Kesslin is a speaker, author, and purpose-driven coach best known for being the father of two amazing 20 somethings! He recently published his fourth book The Joy Molecule, which includes 8 stories of amazing humans that have taught him 5 key lessons to finding his joy. After a decades-long entrepreneurial journey, including a life-changing trip to Africa, Larry now helps high achievers redefine success, reconnect with who they truly are, and create lives filled with meaning, connection, and joy. Through his frameworks around identity, purpose, and conscious connection, Larry guides people to shift from “what they do” to “why they’re here.” He brings deep wisdom, powerful stories, and a grounded, human approach to transformation. https://5-dots.com/
