The Elements of a Wanderful Chat
A Wanderful Chat combines two unique things: a healthy conversation and the great outdoors. We'll go for a walk, chat about what’s on your mind, and dig into it together.
A Healthy Conversation
Need some honest feedback? Or an alternative perspective? Let's meet up and talk through whatever is on your mind. Relationship issues, work concerns, an unbiased sounding board, whatever you'd like to discuss in a judgement-free, safe space.
The Great Outdoors
We spend so much of our lives indoors today that we can be surprised what moving around in some fresh air can do for our bodies. We will meet up, walk around outside, and get some fresh air in our lungs for a soulful recharge as we talk through what's on your mind.
My Mission
My mission is to interact with people in whatever capacity works best for them, (honest feedback, sounding board, empathetic vent, bringing up alternative perspectives, etc.) so that at the end of our time they feel understood, refreshed, and armed with an array of result-oriented feedback or perspectives.
Hey! I'm Joe.
One of my favorite quotes is one that gets attributed to Socrates, "I know that I know nothing." In a world where we are always being pressured to present a bulletproof version of ourselves, it's amazing how far a sense of vulnerability and humility can take you.
I will gladly admit there are plenty of things I know nothing about, but enough people have told me that I have a strong aptitude for providing honest, actionable, relatable, unbiased feedback for me to pursue this idea I’ve had for some time. Our minds are complicated spaces. I love talking through topics that are occupying space in your mind and helping put you back in your own driver’s seat.
My background is diverse. I know what it's like growing up in poverty as a minority in a rural, conservative community. I also know what it's like to live in a more liberal environment with the means to provide for myself comfortably. I've seen success in relationships, career, and life in general. I've seen failures in relationships, career, and life in general. There are learnings on both sides of the coin and I love exploring every experience to find those life lesson gems.
Personal accountability and general self awareness are two very important aspects of my approach. Let's take a look at your situation without any emotion, review it objectively, and engineer an actionable solution.
“Joe is a bright light. When you talk to him he brings light to your feelings. Every. Single. Time. He always gives you his full attention and listens to every word kindly and gently. Joe will give you his honest feedback but he will deliver it in a kind, comforting, and gentle way. He has a warm soul, kind heart, and comforting tone. Your words and feelings are safe with him. You are in good hands.”
