How can I help you start living your calling?
The powerful question that made me think I was crazy
Joseph Wilner
I decided to honor a life-long passion when I turned 30.
I committed to becoming a professional drummer.
You might be thinking that’s an unorthodox career transition, being that I am a licensed therapist and life coach… and I would agree with you.
You see, as I was working with more and more clients in my practice, I kept asking them the same questions.
“What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? What would you do if you could do anything?”
And I had a realization: I hadn’t truly answered these questions myself!
So I asked myself, “What would I do if I could do anything?”
And the answer came to me – I would be a professional drummer! And in doing so, I could inspire others to follow their dreams!
I had started playing drums as a young teenager and had always dreamed of touring around the world in a band.
I was worried my dream was not possible. It didn’t fit any mold of success I had learned about. My family and friends were supportive, but I could tell they didn’t really get it.
Was I crazy? What if I failed or wasn’t good enough? Was I just trying to dodge responsibility to go play “rock star?”
But I knew this was the path I had to take.
It was the right decision. No matter what other people thought, no matter how uncertain the outcome, and no matter how many doubts and fears I had.
Today I’m blessed to both be the drummer for my band Yes You Are while continuing to work with clients to help them achieve their own dreams.
I had the support of mentors and fellow Dream Chasers along the way, and know the value of surrounding yourself with people who have your back.
