My guest today is Billy Garton Jr who was running a successful Social Media Agency at the beginning of this year. His personal, professional, and business life seemed to be going well until the day he started losing clients due to COVID restrictions, and he had to file for unemployment.

Filled with anxiety and fear, Billy was pushed to take an inventory of his emotions and feelings, to figure out his true passion and life’s purpose. He overcame this tough time and built an amazing personal brand that has brought more income than he could ever imagine.
