In this episode BJ provides illuminating lessons on why entrepreneurship is a viable planet-saving career, while highlighting the challenges of being one of the few Black men in his field.
“Now is the time, let's quit delaying. This notion of, oh, well it's okay, five-year-olds in L.A. today have asthma because we'll have electric school buses in 2040—we need to reject that type of thinking and start asking, ‘No. Why can't we start making this better today?’”
- BJ Johnson, Co-Founder ClearFlame Engine Technologies
This is just the latest example of the amazing guests and conversations Yesh brings to listeners around the world! We hope that, by hearing their stories, you’ll find advice and inspiration to guide you on your own purpose-driven journey.
