Ivan Barratt: Be the Salt and Light

Описание: How can you start your generosity journey now with the budget you currently have?

In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Ivan discuss:
● Learning from all work experiences.
● Lessons from living upside down.
● Navigating partnerships.
● Starting your generosity path early - and bringing your family into your giving at all levels.

Key Takeaways:
● There is no need to go into debt to fund your lifestyle.
● When working with others, the sum of the whole is greater than the individual parts. But recognize there will be challenges and debates, and see the blessings in each other’s strengths.
● Give before you’re ready. Start small and increase incrementally, even if only 1% annually.
● Sharpen your iron around those who are also doing great things around you. Build a community of strong individuals around you to raise and strengthen one another.

"I would be an evangelist for peer groups, whether they are faith-based or not. Of course, faith-based is a plus, but getting around some like-minded individuals that are going through the same thing I am, and having a group that I can talk to and be vulnerable with, and then mirroring that with some sort of coaching or mentorship or advising. Those two aspects have been rocket fuel for my trajectory." — Ivan Barratt
