Preparing for the Holidays, Indoor Air Quality, and Investing for Beginners

I’m kicking off a series of What Drives You episodes with some incredibly interesting people. People who got clear on what they wanted, and why. That’s what creates authentic drive, knowing what you want and why. Here I bring you Shawn Askinosie, founder of Askinosie Chocolate. If you are a Seth Godin follower you have likely heard of Shawn and Askinosie Chocolate, as Seth is a big fan of Shawn, the company, and the chocolate! As you’re about to hear, Shawn's dad died at 14 and tore his world apart, setting him on a maniacal pace to accomplish big achievements and prove to God he didn't need him. He ultimately pursued law school and withstood 11 law school rejections, yer went on to have an exemplary, 20 year career. But he never overcame his dad's sickness and death. This led him to volunteering for palliative care at a hospital and starting a five year journey to a completely different vocation. A significant statement from him in this episode is this, “It’s a funny paradox, but the first step in sorting myself out was actually not to think about myself, and instead to focus on other people.” Shawn has a book called, Meaningful Work - A Quest To Do Great Business, Find Your Calling, and Feed Your Soul. I highly recommend it and you can find it wherever you buy books, and at his website, shawnaskinosie.
