My guest for 06/04/14 is Jake Ducey. We'll be talking about Jake quitting college, traveling around the world, writing his inspiring book Into the Wind, and the music Jake hears calling him now. In college on a basketball scholarship and headed for a sports career, at 19 Jake Ducey, a kid from a good Southern California family, seemed to have it all. But he didn't. Something was missing, and the emptiness had led him to a life fueled by alcohol and drugs. Following his heart, Jake left it all behind and, with his meager savings, traveled the world. What he ended up finding was that what he was looking for was inside him all the time, that our destiny is reached only if we look inside of ourselves first. Upon return from his spiritual adventure, Jake raised the funds to build a school and home in San Marcos, near Lake Atitlan in Guatemala, and to support orphans who are taken care of by a Quiché Maya Shaman. Now 22, Jake is the author of Into the Wind (Waterside, April 2013) and he speaks throughout the country on consciously and responsibly creating our lives.
