Juan Bendana: How to Make an Impact at Any Age

Juan Bendana is one of the most inspiring people I know. If you've ever caught one of his Instagram stories, you'd know: the man truly walks the walk. His positivity and motivation are not just for show, and he's using that energy to spread his message as an International Youth Speaker. 

Juan was lucky enough to grow up surrounded by personal growth, and people who knew the value of living an intentional life. The problem? Those people were all 3 times his age! 

To give today's youth a fighting chance at creating a life on their terms, and making an impact big or small, he's hustled his way to becoming one of the most charismatic youth speakers I've ever seen. I wanted to bring on today's episode to show you that it's possible to create an impact at any age.
