1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
So tell me about your vision, Jeremy.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Yeah, my vision is really to put hope out into the world.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:19,000
It's to reach people, provide encouragement, and to live a life where I'm joyful, I'm happy, I'm experiencing joy, I'm giving joy.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000
And that's it. Like, very simple.

5
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,000
Tell me more about that.

6
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Yeah, I think for me, let's talk about what joy looks like. And I think when we have joy, some people think that there's no room for bad days or difficulties or challenges.

7
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:50,000
And all of that can exist within the space of joy. And for me, it's just living my life with intent, making sure that every day I wake up, I'm confident with who I am, my abilities, that the work that I'm doing, the life that I'm living is significant,

8
00:00:50,000 --> 00:01:01,000
and that I'm faithful to my work, my family, my creator, and just the skills and talents that have been given to me. And just like living that way every single day, encouraging people along the way.

9
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:10,000
And if I can make a difference in one person's life a day, then I've had a great day. And that brings me a lot of joy.

10
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:19,000
So I'm guessing, is that the only criteria you use to define a great day? Or is there more things that you include or not include?

11
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:35,000
You know, I think a great day, that's actually an interesting question, because you can have a day where your morning starts out terrible. Maybe you have a car accident on the way into work, or you receive some bad news and the day was bad.

12
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:50,000
But then when you reflect back and you come from a space of gratitude and you recognize that you're still alive, you're here, you still have your gifts, your talents, I think even those bad days, you can find the pockets and the moments of joy.

13
00:01:50,000 --> 00:02:11,000
And that doesn't mean, again, like life is going to throw challenges at you, every day is not going to be a great day. But if you can have peace at the end of the day, knowing that you survived the day, that you were able to make a difference and control as much of your destiny as you could, then I think that that is creating a positive and a plentiful day for yourself.

14
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Thank you for sharing that.

15
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Sure.

16
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Jeremy, what would you say, Jeremy, that your vision came from?

17
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:34,000
My vision came from probably a 15 year journey of living life, having a dream, following a dream, moving from my home in Oklahoma to Atlanta, Georgia.

18
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:50,000
And this was to pursue a career in music and experiencing ups and downs with that and having it where I like to say I followed my dream and found my purpose. So music didn't pan out in a way that I had hoped it would or thought it would.

19
00:02:50,000 --> 00:03:19,000
However, I'm standing in a place now of so much gratitude because it planned out, it panned out exactly the way in which it was supposed to. And the stories and the lessons that I learned about myself, about business, about creativity and managing multiple pieces of a project and strategy and messaging and being able to take these same skills and assets that I learned along the way of following this journey of what I thought was my purpose,

20
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:28,000
what is more a journey of passion, has really led me into living a life of purpose and having that what I thought was a vision.

21
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:43,000
And it was a vision at the time. It takes a vision to move from home and try to be a star, if you will. You can't do that without having some kind of vision. But knowing that your vision can evolve and your purpose can evolve as well.

22
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:55,000
I think that my vision just came from my current vision and where I'm going, how I'm living my life has come from just years of experience and finding what my gifts are and how to best use those gifts.

23
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:03,000
So, Jeremy, what would you say is what your why what you do?

24
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Why I do what I do is to really bring hope to, I say the world, and that's a tremendous scale. I think with technology today, I can bring hope to the world.

25
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:32,000
But it's really to whoever I can affect, whether it's my household that I live in, my community, people that I interact with, whether it's events or, you know, even just going out to eat, you know, getting to know sometimes the servers at the restaurants and encouraging people to eat.

26
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,000
So my why is to be a messenger of hope.

27
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:47,000
