#19 -   Growing up near London, England, Josh De Luna decided to study law in university, but not because he wanted to become a lawyer. He was busy trying to figure out who he was and how he fit into this world – law just seemed like a fun thing to study along the way that would also appease his parents' wishes. Upon graduating, Josh left for an adventure in Brazil, volunteering for an environmental NGO, but many months later he decided to come home when the lifestyle wasn’t a good fit.  Thus, began Josh’s journey to find out what WAS the right fit. Watching his friend's careers take off, he moved to London and tried a variety of high-powered jobs so he could live the Wolf of Wallstreet lifestyle, but something with always slightly off. At some point, Josh realized that while he was running away from being a lawyer because it was what other people wanted for him, it actually was what he wanted for himself. After working as a bartender, and loving it, during his Master of Law degree, Josh is now in a happy place as a lawyer who lives life on his own terms.
