The guest of this week's show does just that for children and youth to inspire and motivate them. Joe Beckman is also an actor and father of 3. He was such a fun guest to have on the podcast because he was one of the people who took the time to email me as a listener of Generosity Philosophy, and I was happy to have him share his story on Generosity Philosophy.

Today's guest today has a true tragedy to triumph story. We didn't discuss too much of his past, however, in our conversation because I wanted the focus to be on what he's doing now in the present with the "for purpose" organization he founded called A Human Project. The guest today is Wesley Chapman.  Everytime I’ve heard him on a podcast share his story, I am amazed and impressed to know how far he’s come from being a child who was abused in every way, and abandoned by his parents.  But we aren’t going to focus too much on the past in this interview because I’m hoping you listening are more interested in learning about what he’s doing today that makes him and his project so empowering, inspiring, and motivating individual. His message is that that your environment doesn’t have to dictate your outcome.   Please visit http://generosityphilosophy.com/54 to watch the video of Wesley's story and to see more ways you can reach out and help with A H
