Dear Son, I Work Hard To Give You Options | A Conversation w/ Joshua Wilson | The DSP Ep 24

Dear Son, I work hard to create options for you. It is a common theme for many parents to work hard in hopes of providing a better life for their children. For the few radicals, entrepreneurs, that journey can be extremely difficult, frustrating, and unrewarding most of the time. In this episode, I sat down with Joshua (Josh) Wilson to understand how journeys of ‘husbandhood,’ fatherhood, and business builder is intersected, and how he manages through it all when times get rough. Josh's story is one of humble beginnings. His biological father was around for the first several years, but that relationship left a lot to be desired. His parents divorced while he was a young boy, and he vividly remembers the pain it caused the family. His mother later remarried and experienced a much more fulfilling relationship, but there was still a void that only a father (or father figure) could fill. He shares some of the painful memories of those times and credits his mother with providing him the unconditional love he needed to get through life. Some are frustrated by the pains of the past; others are fueled by those experiences. Josh has developed a rare degree of grit and determination that have propelled him into successful entrepreneurship and, more importantly, business ownership. There's a difference. He credits his wife, Devin, with believing in him (and them) when times got rough, and maintaining order in the home when the tables turned. There's a theme of a woman always being key to his success in life. Of course, there is way more to this story, and you'll get your attention's worth out of this episode.   Grab a snack and get into this one.
