Through his love of words and an entrepreneurial spirit, Elijah Caldwell runs a masterclass in a paradigm shift from "do, do, do" to "allowing yourself to be who you are." Our conversation runs through being identified as talented and gifted to courageous conversations of living out your own vision. Adding motivational speaker to his credit, Elijah shows us why we must get out of our own way to live a fulfilled life. Author of "Close Your Eyes and Look: How to Journey Within to Find Success," Elijah invites us to see how we define ourselves differently from the norm.
