Bobby Harrison knows what it means to lose yourself in the pursuit of someone else’s definition of “making it.”
For years, he chased careers that looked successful from the outside — the job titles, the expectations, the appearance of progress. But beneath the surface, the cost was heavy: depression, self-doubt, and a growing distance from the life he actually wanted. It was only when he stepped away from the noise and turned toward small, meaningful side hustles that he began to rebuild on his own terms.
Bobby’s journey is not a highlight reel — it’s a human one. His talk explores how struggle can be a starting point, not an ending. How risk can be a teacher. And how redefining success from the inside out can restore purpose, resilience and direction. Today, Bobby is driven not by recognition, but by meaning — and by the freedom that comes when your life finally feels like your own.
His message is simple: growth isn’t about having it all together. It’s about refusing to stay where you fell.
