EDUCATION & INSPIRATION
Over the last decade, I've been compiling a list of people, books, films and other teachings that have inspired and informed my perspective. I update it weekly. This is my master list of education and inspiration that has helped shape who I am today.
WISDOM MEETS PASSION
My father, Dan Miller, is a best selling author on discovering a purposeful, meaningful career. He’s also one of my closest friends. I’m grateful for all he has taught me through the years, and specifically, the perspective he bestowed upon me.
While I was living with my family in Mombasa, Kenya, on the Indian Ocean coast, he asked me to collaborate on a book with him. Naturally, I was honored and excited. Wisdom Meets Passion is the result.
Today we face a unique dichotomy between the wisdom of the Baby Boomer generation and the passion of Generation Y. According to Wisdom Meets Passion, the question is not which is right, but rather how can the two work together?
Wisdom, meet passion. Passion, wisdom.
By bringing these two voices to the issue, this book takes readers through familiar plights, such as understanding the American Dream, the quest for security, and work that matters—regardless of age. Through candid storytelling, Dan Miller and Jared Angaza uncover various generational approaches to work, money, success, and relationships, proving that it is possible to be both passionate and wise.
CONNECT WITH ME ON INSTAGRAM
There was a time where I was consistent in posting to my Instagram profile. If you want to see some of my world up to about 2021, you can see some of the things I care about. I may post again someday, but for now it's more of an archive of some chapters of my story.
(I do not actively use any social media at this point.)
WRITINGS
These days, I write most often on Medium. That's where you'll find my latest articles on topics like philanthropy, activism, purpose, and culture. I'd be honored if you'd join the conversation!
