Summary
In this episode, we sit down with Johan Depraetere, author of Pick Your Gummy Bear, for a powerful conversation about courage, choice, reinvention, and what happens when life invites us beyond the familiar.Born in Belgium and shaped by a global journey across Brussels, Boston, New York, Barcelona, London, Seoul, and nearly 100 countries, Johan brings a rare perspective on success, failure, purpose, and personal growth. His career has included work with major organizations such as McKinsey, Samsung, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and Procter & Gamble, along with his current work as co-founder of Energy Equation Partners.Through his book and life story, Johan explores the moments that define us: the bold leaps, quiet decisions, unexpected losses, and deeply human questions that push us to become more honest, courageous, and alive.This conversation is about more than achievement. It is about listening to the call within, embracing uncertainty, and learning how the choices we make can open the door to a fuller, more meaningful life. https://www.johandepraetere.com/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support .
