We had the good fortune of connecting with Louis Goodman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Louis, how do you think about risk?
Risk is everything. For real change it requires risk. Risk is what life is all about. I wouldn’t be where I am today without risk.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What sets me apart from others is that I don’t quit. I keep going and in a world like this, you have to. I use discipline when I don’t have anything else left and honestly that’s what keeps me up and at it. Starting the action of work has not been a problem for me more so tha anxiety of the many visions I have in my head and carrying them out. It’s all about not quitting and just moving forward, taking the day by each day.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would love to show them around the beach, a few hikes and some good vegan spots around the area.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Shoutout to everyone who’s ever believed in me. Thank you for recognizing and understanding.
