SJP Guest Bio:
Lincoln is a business operations consultant based in Austin, TX. In 2023, after experiencing a series of overwhelming life events, he embarked on a journey of self-exploration to discover who he truly is and what he genuinely wants out of life. This journey opened up a new world and way of being for him -- rooted in spirituality and expansion. Now, he is pursuing what fulfills him and creating from a place of alignment with his soul’s desires.
Among his creative projects, Lincoln hosts The Walking Wisdom Podcast, where he walks the trail in Austin, TX, with people who are also on the journey of finding alignment. Together, they engage in insightful conversations to uncover the wisdom of the universe and the wisdom within all of us.
He also founded an accountability community called Ascension Accountability Partners, where members support each other in ascending to their highest selves.
