Blake Johnson is a previous guest all the way back from episode 12!
Blake is a surfer, entrepreneur, and successful business owner. Originally from Wollongong Australia, Blake now lives in Bali with his girlfriend Jess. Since arriving in Bali, Blake founded two cafes and a coffee roasting distribution company called Coffee Cartel. Blake's business savvy has allowed him to create a lifestyle on his terms, and at the age of 32, he has acquired knowledge and skills well beyond his years. Blake possesses innate confidence, calmness, and kindness in all that he does. I believe these qualities have allowed him to achieve the success that he has at a young age. Blake is a firm believer in hard work, dedication and challenging the notion of stereotypical, traditional education and career pathways. Blake finds his solace in the ocean, he has found his happy place at Nusa Lembongan, he is newly engaged, and has a baby on the way! On this week's episode, Blake is back on the show for a catch up to share his experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

*Special note: Literally the day after this episode was recorded, the world began to go into lockdown, international boarders were being closed...and just like that, Blake and I are both now back in Wollongong, NSW Australia. Crazy times. A great reminder, that control is an illusion. Things can change in a heartbeat, stay present.
