AJ Leon is a remarkable misfit.

On the eve of his wedding, he walked out on a successful and promising career in the financial industry. “If I didn’t walk away there and then, I would have been that guy for the rest of my life”.

But here’s the thing: he didn’t have a Plan B. And he had to break the news to his family.

In this conversation, you’ll learn what happened next: how AJ embarked on an extraordinary journey, literally traveling the world, starting businesses and projects, in tandem with his wife Melissa and a growing band of Misfits.

AJ’s new book “The Life & Times of a Remarkable Misfit” was funded by a spectacularly successful campaign on Kickstarter. His appearance at this Smarter Egg event was part of a global tour delivering this book to those who had backed him.

Enjoy the conversation. And be prepared for a few F-bombs! 😉

This conversation was recorded at a Smarter Egg event at Upstairs at the White Horse, Ballincollig, Ireland in September 2013. Smarter Egg clients from across the business spectrum were in attendance, along with some invited guests. The video footage was filmed and edited by Ian Armstrong of Onevision Multimedia.
