Blair Took A Leave Of Absence From Management In Finance And Used Bootcamp To Go From Cloudy To Clarity Personally, Professionally & Spiritually

Blair decided to apply for bootcamp because he was at a major turning point in his life. Personal, professional and spiritual issues were all colliding at once. And he'd just decided to take a leave of absence from his management position in finance.

"My mind felt clouded as I was trying to navigate next steps while suffering from burnout and trying to heal emotionally. Obviously the bootcamp was great and too much to go into in a single message, but developing healthy rhythms, identifying my performance mindset and how it relates to my perception of acceptance, and allowing myself to truly receive grace from the HS were key breakthroughs that allowed me to gain clarity in a very uncertain season of my life."

"At the end of bootcamp, TJ and I had a call to identify the requirements for my next career: schedule flexibility, influence within the culture, financial opportunity, and creative freedom. I discovered that potential by first opening my mind to it...and then making a pivot into financial planning. Throughout the last year I’ve been able to reconnect with several people and have the flexibility to share my faith during the process. The new career path has been challenging, but I know it will be rewarding long-term."

"Also…I’ll be marrying the love of my life in September.
So thankful for God’s provision and amazed at how He has been at work throughout my life."

Hannah Was A Top Sales Performer But Realized She Had Been A 'Slave To Money'...Until One Encounter Moment Helped Her Break Free

Hannah spent about 10 years in corporate America, rising the ranks in sales, making a lot of money and wealth for herself along the way. Although 'successful', she knew she had more potential...and she wasn't truly fulfilled.

When we first got connected she said God had been after her heart. She was really growing spiritually and getting involved with her church. But she couldn't escape the fact that she was feeling burned out and still missing something. Purpose...direction...clarity...answers.

"It was the beginning of 2019 and I just had a moment where I realized...I need to make a change. There's so much more and I know God has made me for so much more than this. I was so grateful for all the opportunities in my life but I knew there was a shift happening."

"Then a friend invited me to a living room tour where TJ was speaking. With everything he said that day I remember thinking, 'Yes. Yes. Yes.' TJ's journey aligned with so much of what I had been experiencing. So when I joined the bootcamp...just the commitment to the process itself was a big pivotal moment in my life...because I started to think, 'I can change. I can be different.' That was a big thing for me because - though I was doing well for myself - I needed to realize I had a 'lack' mentality. Even though finances weren't really a question, I was still limited in my decisions because of how tightly I was holding on to money..."

"In the first week of the bootcamp I was on the phone with TJ to get guidance about whether or not I would take a promotion with a new company...I remember having this vision of pushing a pot of gold over to God...and in return He gave me back this set pair of handcuffs. I finally realized I'd been a slave to money and that was a big part of the problem."

After Hannah experienced that encounter moment of freedom, she was able to confidently turn down the promotion opportunity (multiple actually) and begin executing her exit plan.

Years later her life looks a bit unconventional, and nothing like the corporate identity she'd lived with for so long. But, as a missional entrepreneur, she's now more aligned than she's ever been. That doesn't mean she doesn't face challenges. But she now faces them with more peace and freedom...and she's doing things she never thought of doing (World Race, living part time in Costa Rica, seeing others encounter Jesus, developing a lifestyle of being healthy, and navigating a new life personally and professionally)...following God's lead and truly living a life that's genuinely fulfilling.
