Show Notes
If you feel a deep calling but are absolutely terrified to switch careers, this is for you.
Mark Shiiba was working on nuclear reactors aboard an aircraft carrier when he made the bold decision to leave the Navy and share his music with the world. I discovered him on Season 26 of The Voice, fell in love with his music, and immediately noted his old soul. I had to bring him on to talk about all things spirituality, creativity, and what it means to make the bold, friggin' choice to lean all the way in.
