Episode 120 - Your Path Doesn’t Have to Be Linear to Achieve Your Purpose —Josh & Maureen White
Show Notes

Your path doesn’t have to be perfectly linear to get to where you’re meant to be. You don't have to get a master’s degree by 25. You can take 10 years to graduate college or even longer, if that’s what happens to work for you.  

Josh and Maureen’s young adulthood looked very different from each other yet, they both ended up at the exact same destination. Josh knew exactly what he wanted to do in college while Maureen figured out her purpose only after years of going to college, dropping out, traveling, and repeating. Now, they both are the Co-Founders and Executive Directors Red Mountain Sedona and Colorado where they bring both of their passions together and help young adults overcome emotional and/or behavioral challenges.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Josh and Maureen join Joanna to share their different college journeys and how their paths happened to cross, perfectly aligning. Listen in for their insight on how to take advantage of your young adult years and get a look at why it’s not important to have a linear path.
