This realization leads you to walk away from what you've built and start all over again.  That's the story we're exploring with my guest, Steve Rupp.  In today's episode, we will focus less on the business Steve left behind and more on the journey he undertook to embrace a new calling.  Many of us have wondered, &quot;What if I walked away from my career to pursue something I love?&quot; This thought can be frightening, daunting, and, in many cases, not all that simple.  Join Steve and me as we delve into the experiences he had\u2014his thoughts, fears, concerns, and the conversations he had with himself and others about the shift he was considering and eventually made.  Who knows? Steve's story may just be the inspiration and encouragement you need to make that move you've often thought about.
