Hi, I'm Joe (Adventure Hermit)

Hi, I’m Joe, known in some circles as Adventure Hermit! I’ve literally and figuratively led an eclectic life of dead-ends, wrong turns, u-turns, and the occasional mountain top moment. Eventually, I learned I wasn’t always following my dreams, but I was living out someone else’s; parents, peers, teachers, and employers, even as an adult.

I discovered the Enneagram, Ikigai, Shadow Work, and more. It opened me up to a whole new way of approaching myself and the world around me. As a result, I left a career of nearly 20 years. I then dedicated myself to re-discovering my purpose and learning to trust my heart, mind, and body over what others expected of me. Things I had forgotten with time.

It began with a goal to improve myself and better bond with and support my daughters. But, it evolved into something much bigger. I saw how valuable this work would have been to me when I was younger. So I set about creating Compass Work to simplify what I had learned to help other parents to help themselves and the young adults in their lives.
