Lead from imagination, instead of memory with Jacob Robinson, founder of DigWorld

Imagine your child, almost 2 years old, contracts bacterial meningitis, and it changes your life forever. Today's guest, Jacob Robinson, took a life-changing moment and turned it into his mission to help.  This story will pull at your heart while feeding back into your faith and proving how when God puts something onto your heart, he follows through. You can listen to today's episode at www.corymcarlson.com/podcast   In this episode, you'll discover…  How did Digworld come to be? (2:45) How to manage hustle culture (9:50)  Remembering this is about you, and Jesus (15:00) How to not quit after "no"  (16:00)    Jacob's Bio:  Our son, Pierce, was born in May of 2015 as a happy and healthy little boy with a deep love for construction equipment, garbage trucks, dump trucks, and all things outdoors.   On February 4, 2017 Pierce contracted bacterial meningitis which left him with a significant brain injury. After two weeks in a coma and 75 days in the hospital, our life suddenly looked very different. However, we knew God had and still has a very special plan for Pierce's life. Despite the illness leaving multiple physical and cognitive disabilities, Pierce remains full of joy as evidenced by his beaming smile and infectious giggles. We are blessed to be his parents! When he is here, you can often find Pierce in the admissions booth hanging out with the team and welcoming guests to the park!   Pierce's love for construction was the main inspiration for Dig World. We wanted to build something that ALL children and adults could enjoy. We teamed up with our good friend from college, Rick Bennett, and Dig World was set in motion. Our goal at Dig World is to bring friends and families together to enjoy an experience unlike anything else, all while creating memories that last a lifetime.  More on DigWorld   What's Next?  NEW!!
