Summary

John Walsh, founder of StandoutX, former executive at The Walt Disney Company and The Madison Square Garden Company, and bestselling author, does not seem like the kind of man who started out his life battling homelessness. But John has turned his adversity into fuel that has catapulted him into success. And this success is not defined by an important job or large salary, but by his own definition—investing in his family and helping those around him. He understands that to craft your life towards a meaningful legacy, you must take risks, put in what you hope to get out, and uplift others. So join the Stand Out Movement and build your own success.  About The Guest: John Walsh is an inspirational and successful executive, entrepreneur, author, husband and dad with a passion for impacting the lives of others. John faced many challenges, uncertainty and failures early in his life but he created a purposeful and happy life with a lot of hard work and help from others. Over time, he created a playbook that allowed him to make the journey from homeless in high school to a senior executive with Disney and Madison Square Garden. He is the founder and CEO of StandoutX, whose mission is to inspire and help millions of young adults stand out in their own lives and careers.  Finding John Walsh: Website: https://standoutmovement.com/ Buy his book: The Stand Out Experience Instagram: @johnwalsh_standout LinkedIn: John Walsh To inquire about my coaching program opportunity visit https://mentorship.heathermonahan.com/  Review this podcast on Apple Podcast using this LINK and when you DM me the screen shot, I buy you my $299 video course as a thank you!  My book Confidence Creator is available now! get it right HERE If you are looking for more tips you can download my free E-book at my website and thank you! https://heathermonahan.com  *If you'd like to ask a question and be featured during the wrap up segment of Creating Confidence, contact Heather Monahan directly through her website and don’t forget to subscribe to the mailing list so you don’t skip a beat to all things Confidence Creating!   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
