We are all familiar with the archetypal hero who risks life and limb for the greater good. They’re portrayed in the movies donning super powers, celebrated in the news for their bravery and defined as human exceptions in our collective psyche. But, what if a hero resides in all of us?  Seems like an audacious suggestion, but what if it’s true? And if so, how could this realization impact you and the lives of those around you?

These are just a few of the questions Joy Economics host, Shani Godwin explores in her interview with Rodney Bullard, author of “Heroes Wanted: Why the World Needs You to Live Your Heart Out”.

In their hour-long conversation, we’ll learn how Bullard rose from his humble beginnings in Decatur, Georgia to positions of leadership as a NASA fellow, federal prosecutor and eventually the first Executive Director of the Chick-fil-A Foundation. Along the way, he shares stories about the heroes who’ve helped shape his life in both the good and bad times.

This is your opportunity to learn how to overcome your fears, embrace your imperfections and discover the hero inside!
