Do you have a sense that something is rumbling in your soul, trying to get out?

Do you feel confused about who you are professionally?

And are you waiting until you feel ready, or are you building the world you want to live in?

Philosopher and CEO, Brian Johnson is back. This time he’s set his sights on an ambitious goal to create a company that will change the world. The Heroic Public Benefit Corporation is a platform that will provide the tools for optimal living as well as an online community that will become the answer to The Social Dilemma.

At the time of this recording, Brian’s raising $11 million to get the ball rolling, and Heroic stands to be the first company in history to raise $5 million through crowdfunding. There’s so much more to his grand vision, and you can learn more by visiting wefunder.com/heroic.

Now if you’re like most of us, you may have a sense that there’s something calling you to the next level of your life. Perhaps you’re not clear about the role you’re supposed to play or maybe you just don’t want to rock the boat.

Brian is no different. And so as Heroic finds it’s footing in the world, he’s agreed to pull back the curtain and let us in on his personal process. Throughout this series of interviews, we’ll ride along with Brian through his hero’s journey — and find our own gold along the way.
