Listeners, I can't wait to introduce you to our guest speaker, Joe Clark. Joe has his own podcast, authenticconviction, created five businesses, runs a nationally competitive baseball organization, and played collegiate baseball. He is additionally a husband, dad of three, & currently the President & C.E.O. of Integrated Financial Network, a financial planning firm! Born in Kokomo, Indiana, Joe experienced a life-shaping moment at age seven when his father unexpectedly passed away at the age of thirty-six. From that point on, he was blessed with a supportive step-father and the opportunity to pursue his collegiate dream of baseball at Miami University. Throughout all of these experiences, Joe has realized that his motivation no longer stems from having valuable tangible items, but rather the most liberating thing he sits with today is that he knows who he is. Joe’s career comes full circle as a financial planner because he is fulfilled by the ability to best prep families for uncertainties in the future, just as he experienced at a young age.
