In 2008, after the birth of their daughter Milligan, Adam Baker and his wife, Courtney, decided to sell everything they owned, pay off their consumer debt and travel the world as a family. The Baker’s simple motto is “The first step to living a life of passion and purpose is to remove the barriers that hold you back.” This journey lead to the creation and work on ManVsDebt.com.
Now Adam is finishing up a new project as the producer of I’m Fine Thanks a feature length documentary about complacency. It’s a collection of stories about life, the choices we all make and the paths we ultimately decide to follow.
The windows of possibilty is the theme to my show each week. It’s about not being defined by our past and working towards a new future. In the interview Adam talks about how he was kicked out of college, worked in two fast food restaurants, prior to his latest accomplishments with Man vs. Debt and now his documentary I’m Fine, Thanks.
I asked him the question that he has never been asked – “How did he not let that experience define him as who he was and what he was capable of?”
We also talked about:
- why the documentary I’m Fine, Thanks
