Ep. 112 / Identity and What Matters Most with Marcus Murphy
It’s hard to believe I haven’t even known Marcus for a year yet. What started as a unsolicited outreach by me to Marcus, via LinkedIn, has turned into what I believe will be a life-long friendship.
Marcus has accomplished so much at such a young age, but throughout the journey also had to relearn what matters most to him…his family. He has an uncanny way of seeing and creating opportunities that help both some of the largest companies in the world and also individuals like myself. The work I did with Marcus changed me by helping me better understand myself, which happens to be the same person I so intentionally want to help. “We are Noah’s walking home together.”
Join us as we talk about:
Identity and growing up in a bi-racial family
Not being black enough or white enough
Almost losing the thing that matters most to him
How building a play house for his girls changed everything
The power of forgiveness
Connection is everything
Get ready to enjoy this super rich conversation that covers so many important human topics.
