69: Start With Curiosity with JB Bolton (JB Shares How Radical Curiosity Can Help You Reinvent Your Career, Redefine Your Identity, And Take The Next Brave Step)
from The Second Act with Michael and John · host Michael Newborn, John Ballenger
What happens when everything you thought defined you, your title, your income, your path, suddenly stops feeling true? For JB Bolton, that question ignited a transformation he never saw coming. Growing up in Colorado Springs, he watched his parents navigate change with resilience, a lesson that later fueled his own nonlinear path from retail sales to finance to tech. But it was the birth of his daughter that triggered a radical reset. JB and his family sold nearly everything, hit the road in an RV, and stripped life down to what actually mattered. That clarity led him from answering phones at a scrappy startup to becoming a senior executive guiding a high-growth SaaS company through scale and transformation. Ultimately, the conversations he valued most, helping people navigate challenge, identity, and purpose, pulled him into full-time coaching. Today, JB helps leaders reinvent themselves by starting with courageous and compassionate curiosity.
