Send us a text  The message we are so used to hearing is, “Don’t make this mistake like I did…” or “Listen to me because I messed up big time…” and so on.  But what about the person who stood their ground (even from an early age in school) and can speak from experience about making good decisions and the outcomes of those good decisions?  That regardless of the popularity or consequences tied to them… he was going to do the unpopular thing and to go against his peers.  Our guest today, Joel Penton, is an ordinary man with an extraordinary message that has been shared with over half a million young people all over the country. You don’t need to fit in to stand out. You just need to stand your ground.  And Joel continues to spread his message through a new passion with Lifewise Academy.    “If you’re willing to work hard, willing to never miss a work out, and if you’re willing to do more than everyone else, then you could compete and you could excel.” - Joel Penton    Time Stamps   01:17 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design’ podcast  3:17 – Get to know today’s special guest, Joel Penton, a renowned youth motivational speaker  07:47 – Joel on what it feels like to give a speech to a large crowd and how he’s teaching the Bible in schools  15:41 – Joel on staying on the narrow path to God  21:03 – Joel reveals the biggest influence on his career  28:09 – Why he turns down the NFL dream to pursue public speakingSupport the showConnect w/ CriticalBench: Youtube Facebook Instagram CriticalBench.com StrongByDesignPodcast.com
