Episode 15: More Than Just Words
Meet Josh Robinson, a journalist from Atlanta, GA. However, I believe "journalist" is an understatement to describe what he does in the field. He turned a high school passion for writing and music into an avenue I am sure he did not see coming. From writing music articles that led him to meet several of the world's most influential artists to creating and selling his own comic book series. Hope you guys enjoy this episode and remember to Let Your Passion Work For You!

Episode 14: May the [Sales] Force Be With You
Meet Matthew Meadows (IG: matty_yy), a Salesforce Business Analyst from Atlanta, GA. This episode shares so many gems from the salesforce and consulting field, but also just ways to grow as an individual and professional. To be transparent, our first interview got lost in "space" and I was quite devastated to have lost a great interview, but could not rob my audience of the knowledge he shared. In the mere time of a few months, the growth from the initial interview to the one you will view now is amazing and powerful. This is definitely an episode where you would want to acknowledge the key points that will make a huge difference in your life regardless of field or passion. With that being said, I hope you all enjoy Episode 14 of Paid In Passion, and remember to Let Your Passion Work For You!

Episode 12: The Motivational Speaker
Meet Ammishaddai Grand-Jean. For those who know him, when he speaks everyone listens. So it makes sense that he has become a keynote speaker who has spoken in front of thousands. However, his journey is one that many, if not all, of us can relate to. Sometimes you’re on the bench of life waiting so patiently to get in the game and receive the fruits of your labor. The wisdom and encouragement in this interview are unmatched. Did I mention he’s a soon-to-be award-winning author? You can hear a motivational speech or order your own copy of Benchwarmers: What To Do When You’re On the Bench of Life (link will be provided). Tune in and enjoy another episode of Paid In Passion. Let Your Passion Pay For You!

Meet Jalen Dunning, a 21-year-old firefighter with the Gwinett Fire Station. (IG: @jaaysaaucy) We've all wondered (or maybe just me) why firefighters are at so many scenes when 911 is called.

Episode 8: The Lawyer
Meet Jeffrey Hendricks, a first-year lawyer from Atlanta, GA. As many of these interviews have gone, there is so much more to each person than what their profession or degree entails. His passion for sports and academic success has given him the vision to be the next top-shelf sports agent, and I am very confident in his journey. Our conversation flows between topics of law school, his love for sports, and some things you will find out when you press play. One big thing I took out of our talk is how intentional you have to be when being yourself because that is the one thing no one can teach you how to do. Stay tuned for many more and continue to Let Your Passion Work For You!

Episode 7: The Dreamer
Meet Godswill Nwankwo! (IG: @__willyy) He is currently a program manager at Google. I specifically use the word "currently" because you can see how big of a dreamer he is through our conversation. A great example of someone who understands that in order to make it to the highest of hills, you're going to have to pass through the lowest of valleys. So many great values are discussed throughout the video that is applicable to all people. With working in areas concerning your passions, have your mind on a goal, and throughout it all: keep going. I learned so much from this interview, and I just know you will too. This is what Paid In Passion is all about. Enjoy it, like it, share it, and enjoy it again : ) Thank you for listening to another episode of Paid In Passion, Let Your Passion Work For You
