Joe Hehn is living through a story that many men fear, and few ever speak about. Joe not only shared a personal narrative; he also revealed a blueprint for reclaiming purpose after unimaginable loss. He is a mentor, corporate speaker, and mindset coach. Joe is guiding men toward self-awareness and emotional resilience. He does so by openly describing how his own world collapsed and rebuilt itself.

Before his wife’s cancer diagnosis, Joe explains that “everything on paper looked perfect”. Yet, internally, he was constantly stressed, anxious, and disconnected. His life changed dramatically one afternoon in Chicago. It was when a routine meditation on a park bench became his first spiritual awakening. “Everything is alive,” he recalls. “It’s like I’m stepping into a painting.”

But that brief moment of illumination was only the beginning. After losing his wife to cancer, Joe plunged into an emotional wilderness. “I didn’t want to die,” he admitted, “but I didn’t want to live either.” This became the lowest point of his life and also the turning point. He began the long process of grief recovery and rebuilding his identity. He did so when he was travelling through South America. He volunteered and reconnected with spirituality.

What makes Joe’s journey distinct is not only the scale of his grief, but his relentless pursuit of meaning. “Is this the life I want for myself?” he asked in Bolivia, bedridden and empty. That question became the foundation of his life’s new mission. Helping men cultivate purpose through mindset coaching, emotional healing, and self-awareness.
