“Imagination is the highest form of research.” -Albert Einstein Reality is nothing more than applied meaning. We say this A LOT on T&T, it’s at the core of our WHY, after all. In a world that is telling you how to be, live, think, and exist… we are writing you a note and excusing you for the day! This is an awesome conversation with Jeff Venn, entrepreneur, father, dreamer, doer, and former pro surfer, about dialing into self and making major pivots in life to be as useful to this world as you can be. Questioning a better way is Jeff’s cardio. We unpack Jeff’s journey from a strictly religious childhood, to finding freedom in surfing, to eventually changing his direction in life completely once he figured out his core values and decided to chase what was real to him. Jeff is an open book sharing his entrepreneurial pursuits, physical and mental wellness, parental pro tips, and even expanding the mind and his creatively with psychedelics! Yes, you can be all things. See you at Burning Man soon Jeff:), thank you for the time and energy… and expanding the horizon for us all! Highlights: Questioning a better way. Leaving behind the prescribed you and embracing the real you. Letting go of what you should do. Mental and physical wellness. Corporate world to entrepreneurial world. Questioning marriage, monogyny, and psychedelics. The importance of mentorship and leading by example. Life skills through sports. Burning Man. Jeff Venn: I'm Jeff Venn, a life architect, business owner, and mentor to young entrepreneurs.  ​Many people will tell you where to go, what to do, and how to live, but there's a higher path and calling inside of you that only you can unearth.​  It's time to stop living by other people's scripts and expectations for your life and have your own awakening.  I've done this in my own life, taking a forward-thinking, progressive approach to building and running my businesses and how I build and run my days. Sure, I’ve accomplished a few things on the outside: Founder ofCreate Studios, a digital marketing agency Founder ofc o n v e r g e, a community for young entrepreneurs Former Semi-Pro Surfer Professional Musician Fluent in Spanish But I’m most proud of my successes on the inside. I’ve escaped the rat race. I’m rich in the things that matter most to me – control over my time, a fulfilling work-life balance, and the opportunity to inspire young entrepreneurs to dream bigger than they ever thought possible. Life is a giant wheel of progress, improvement, and learning. Now, let’s get moving. @jeffvenn @createwebstudios @createwithjeff    Connect with T&T: IG: @TurmericTequila Facebook: @TurmericAndTequila Website: www.TurmericAndTequila.com   Host: Kristen Olson IG: @Madonnashero Tik Tok: @Madonnashero Email: Info@KOAlliance.com Website: www.KOAlliance.com
