Today I’m excited to welcome Tom Asacker to The Quarter Life Comeback podcast.

Tom Asacker is an artist, business philosopher, speaker and author of several books.

Through his career, Tom has experimented with many different roles, including an artist, executive, speaker, business strategist, author, and more.

After chatting to a friend whose son felt stuck in his twenties, Tom thought of an idea for a movie in which we could erase our thoughts and replace them. That’s when I Am Keats was born, which then lead to a book and novel.

Tom discusses how our thoughts and beliefs are simply stories we tell ourselves, and limit what we’re truly capable of becoming.

This is hands down my favorite and most powerful episode so far, and the one I wish EVERYONE could hear.
