What this episode covers
Justin Cooke reinvented his own life in a way that basically amounted to convincing his boss to fire him, and then moving both his personal and professional life halfway around the world to the Philippines. He now is a partner in a successful business called Empire Flippers. In this episode of A Congruent Life, Justin shares his perspectives about the role of authenticity in business, including: taking a risk to jump from his comfortable job in order to move to the Philippines, questioning the wisdom he received about missing opportunities by being away from the United States, leaning into his desire to explore and see the world, the responsibility that he felt to his team as a business owner when times got tough, seeing a business partnership as similar to a marriage, and the better decisions that can come as a result, the challenge of going through "the dip," the congruence between business and personal relationships, and how personal integrity has a tangible business impact, discovering that the most resonant creativity comes on the edge of discomfort.
