Dr. Joe Johnson Speaking Topics

  • Pursue Your Purpose, Not Your Dreams: How to Create the Life and Career you Desire!

    Dreams allow us to create possibilities in our minds that may or may not come true. Purpose allows life to create what's destined to come true. Understanding the difference between "PURPOSE" and “DREAMS" starts with knowing who you are and what is happening in your environment. This keynote helps you understand the importance of wellness, self-confidence, building the right team, and the difference between a "PURPOSE" and a "DREAM."

  • Creating the New Wave: Innovating with Purpose by being an Angelic Disruptor

    Creativity and innovation are sometimes lost in our fear of the unknown. However, if it were not for creativity and innovation our technology would not be where it is, diversity of businesses would not be here, and so many people would be stuck in whatever “average” means to them. Disrupting traditions or norms have become critical to creating a life full of purpose and thriving businesses. Come learn what it means to be a purposeful and Angelic Disruptor.
