JEFF GOINS - PRE-CONFERENCE SESSION

The Art of Work: Discovering what you were meant to do with Jeff Goins

Session Description:

The path to your life’s work is both difficult and mysterious, which is why few finish the journey.

The search begins with passion but does not end there. In this presentation, Jeff talks about discovering your true calling, that thing you were born to do. Listeners will learn how to find their vocation and what to expect along the way. You’ll be encouraged to abandon the status quo and live a life that matters.

Jeff Goins is a full-time blogger, speaker and author. He is the former Communications Director of Adventures in Missions, an international nonprofit organization. Originally from Chicago, Goins graduated from Illinois College and spent the next year on the road with a band. Since studying abroad in Spain, he has always had a passion for travel, missions, and making a difference in the world. His first book, Wrecked: When a Broken World Slams into Your Comfortable Life, addresses the issue of how we live purpose-filled lives by serving the needs of others. Jeff’s blog, GoinsWriter.com, is one of the fastest-growing blogs on the web and a well-respected resource for writers, artists, and entrepreneurs. In 2011 and 2012, it won the Top 10 Blogs for Writers award on WritetoDone.com. Each month, he receives over 100,000 visitors to his website. Jeff’s work has been published online and offline in a variety of publications, including RELEVANT Magazine, Copyblogger.com, and ZenHabits.net (voted one of Time Magazine’s Top 50 Websites). His forthcoming work, The In-Between, is a memoir about the lessons we learn while waiting.

Jeff and his wife, Ashley, live just outside of Nashville, TN with their son and dog.
