"What's Next?" with Joel Krogman
by Joel Krogman
My name is Joel. I'm in my late 30s, and some things about my life are going really well: I'm a filmmaker, a husband, a father. But in other areas, I feel stuck: Is my life making a difference? Could I do more? Am I making enough money? Am I raising my kids in a way that will help them have a right relationship with themselves and the world around them? What should I do with the rest of my life? Should I pump the brakes and stop putting so much pressure on myself?I'm not great at answering these kinds of questions on my own, but what does help me get unstuck is hearing how others have found their way. So this is a show of conversations with people who have answered the question "What's Next?" and lived to tell about it.
