Indiana State Rep. Blake Johnson

The Made in Indy podcast welcomes Blake Johnson; President at IndyHub & Indiana State Representative. Blake recounts his experiences growing up in Danville, Indiana, and how his family's history of community service in politics has guided the trajectory of his life. We learn about how the lessons his grandparents taught him, led to him being conscious of the "doors" he could open for others in any position he has held. We explore the importance of surrounding yourself with individuals that will hold you accountable, and how honest feedback can be used as a tool for organic self-growth. Later, we unpack the importance of having a sense of "belonging" & how that concept serves as the driving force behind IndyHub.
