Description

Josh is a hair dresser by trade, but with a twist. On the way home from work one day in 2015 he got chatting to a homeless guy and ended up giving him a haircut, a haircut that would be the start of something special. Through that haircut Josh realised a level of connectivity and openness in the ensuing conversation that he hadn’t achieved before with the many homeless people he would stop to chat with. So armed with his scissors and a spark of inspiration Josh set out onto the streets of London and through the simple act of a haircut started to uncover the incredible stories of the human beings that are forced to live on our streets.

I was first made aware of Josh through my good friend @ebonyescalona who sent me his book ‘Do Something For Nothing’ and I immediately knew I had to meet him. That happened when I went to watch him speak in London and believe me it wasn’t a disappointment. A down to earth, deep, interesting guy who is making a difference for all of the right reasons.

In this conversation we talk about:
What it means to care,
Finding purpose through helping others,
How we can best make a difference,
The power of communication,
and much more.
