011 // Jacob Morris // Building Strengths Out Of Vulnerabilities

Jacob has a cool job. He's also a really cool guy.

His job is fairly new when it comes to how long it has actually existed.

Jacob runs a talent management agency that is based in Toronto, Canada, called Good Fun, which manages the careers of many well known social media influencer's.

I bet you didn't even know that job existed.

Neither did I. But, it totally makes sense the more that I think about it.

Jacob's clients, many of which you will probably recognize from your own social media feeds are constantly traveling and it makes perfect sense that they would need someone to manage their business interests when it comes to working with the various brands. That is where Jacob saw an opportunity and moved on it.

In this episode, Jacob lets us in on some of the interesting experiences that he has had in his life, and how they all lead him to where he is today.

Whether that be randomly deciding to cash in all of his savings in order to throw a huge party, or creating and launching a running campaign, where Jacob ran a series of half-marathons across Canada to raise awareness for mental illness or passing up an opportunity for stability in order to pursue another path. He was also invited to give a TEDx talk, where he was able to share his personal experiences with depression and anxiety.

Each of these experiences has played a roll in getting Jacob to where he is today and it was great getting an insight into how he has gotten there in this episode.

Enjoy.
