Hitting Rock Bottom And Glad For It John Latta is our guest joining us on the Steve Jobs inspired Join Up Dots business podcast today. Having come face to face with his own personal “rock bottom”, John Latta discovered that his usual efforts of hard work, arguments and logic were getting him nowhere in overcoming the obstacles of becoming a single dad, facing bankruptcy, and his oppressive fear of death. Desperate for a lifeline, he opened his heart and decided to embrace a new way forward with fearless courage. Now when he was a child things were so much different and he showed an inquisitive mind and a thirst for positive thinking and reinforcement. Growing up in Long Beach, CA and later Seattle, WA, his father was an engineer and researcher, and his mother was a stay-at-home mom.
