Josh Green shares a powerful and relatable journey of self-discovery through juggling. By recounting his audition experience as a novice juggler, Josh delves into the internal voices of self-doubt and the societal pressures that can hinder personal growth.

He emphasizes the importance of challenging these negative voices, practicing resilience, and embracing opportunities even when feeling unprepared. The talk inspires viewers to overcome fear, start small, seek support, and persist through failures.

Josh's engaging storytelling underscores the transformative impact of saying "yes" to challenges, leading to a more fulfilling and diverse life.

The message encourages individuals to recognize their potential, silence self-limiting voices, and embrace the unknown for personal and professional growth. Josh Green's diverse journey encompasses degrees in fine arts and business, leading him to a global exploration as a full-time actor and seasoned comedian. Beyond these roles, he has ventured into entrepreneurship, founding both successful and not-so-successful companies. An avid knowledge-sharer, he contributes to festivals worldwide. Presently authoring "Level-Up Business," a groundbreaking book gamifying commerce, Josh consistently addresses the "Why me?" syndrome. This concept, rooted in his early puppet show days, becomes a transformative force as he pushes beyond self-imposed limits.
