What happens when the career you thought defined you gets taken away? Do you shrink back—or do you reinvent yourself?
In this episode of Business Savages, I sit down with J2—artist, speaker, coach, and videographer—who turned his biggest loss into his greatest opportunity. After getting fired from a job people would kill to have, J2 found himself at a crossroads. Instead of letting it break him, he used it as a chance to chase his real purpose.
From rebuilding confidence to pushing past fear, J2 shares what it really takes to own who you are—instead of trying to fit into someone else’s version of success.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
💡 Why losing his “dream job” was the best thing that ever happened to him
💡 The real reason you can’t stay stuck in one lane (even when people tell you to focus)
💡 How faith, purpose, and service fuel real confidence
💡 The power of just starting—before you feel “ready”
💡 Why helping others is the fastest way to find your own path
And some mic-drop moments you don’t want to miss:
✨ “Confidence isn’t about knowing everything—it’s about trusting that you’ll figure it out.”
✨ “You can’t lead others if you don’t first believe in yourself.”
✨ “Nobody else can give you self-worth—you’ve got to claim it.”
This episode is for anyone who’s felt lost, doubted their path, or wondered if they have what it takes. J2 keeps it raw, real, and unfiltered—because sometimes, the only way forward is to stop overthinking and start doing.
