Today we’d like to introduce you to Joshua Simpson
Hi Joshua, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Ok so I’m a 41-year-old Iraq veteran and I’ve had a very difficult and different childhood. I didn’t have family that loved me instead they despised me for being an INDIGO or just plain different from them. I had been chosen since before my birth and had to adapt to my harsh reality and rely upon myself for anything good. After Enduring childhood I enlisted and went straight to Iraq in 2003. After my return all I knew turned on me and I began to turn to addictions and toxic behaviors that had me committed and incarcerated over and over for about 15 plus years. I had hit my bottom when I had a major spiritual awakening that turned on a light inside me that would not go out. I shouldered my addictions and began to push myself to unlearn and relearn everything in life all over again only this time it would all be aimed towards a brighter light. I have always been attuned to the spirit realms and now I knew what it was and knew Instinctively how to utilize these gifts . I wanted a better life and so I created a whole new me. Problem was I didn’t really know how I was gonna do it or if I was even gonna get there. Yet I kept pushing . I did my internal work and healed from my past and my traumas. I rebalanced my Karma and self taught myself the ancient practices of chakras and began to balance my energy and the energies around me very well. I took it further and began to use these hardships to elevate my perception of my world. Now I did all of this homeless grinding on the streets or in hotels and kept on for the last 5 years now. I kept digging and created a new journey for myself as I was playing with my art again and now I’m doing my poetry only now I’m putting music to it . So I am now a artist on all music platforms and I’m growing in fans and followers. That wasn’t enough so I created my company and branded myself with all my talents and skills. I had an even better idea as I would walk across California from LA to Arizona thru the Rockies in January for a 200 mile trip. It was a powerful and profound experience as I was able to transform more of my life and my music . I made it to Texas where a friend let me crash long enough to buy a bicycle and gear and I peddled from San Antonio to Baton Rouge , LA for a 1000 miles . Then jumped a bus to Knoxville, TN to walk from there all down the Smokey Mountains all the way to Georgia for another couple hundred miles. I kept creating my music and finished my 1st book which is now published to go along with my TV series The Wanderer. I had so much fun why stop so I grabbed me a longboard skateboard and skated from South Miami to Key West for 150 miles on a skateboard. Finishing my 2nd book and now that my trip is done looking back at who I was before to who I am now is a night and day difference and my determination to keep going on is solid as steel. My next journey will shock my fans because now I’m taking my homeless ass to Egypt to begin my travels abroad. I have been to 44 states and 5 countries and I love it . I have fallen in love with my self growth and purpose in life . I’m a spiritual teacher and a titan in all that I do spreading love and light and also pulling people’s excuse cards when they meet me and see all that I have done being a homeless veteran with low income on the streets with nothing but a cell phone and a dream to one day be recognized for all that I do and all that I have done for myself and all that I do for others along my way . I’m an inspiration for those to keep pushing thru and to push thru without stepping on anyone . I realized it is very hard to do something big like me without being mean or deceptive just to get ahead in life . I’m a way shower for anyone and refuse to conform to this crooked society. Well this was a small little blink of my life and I hope I’ve made some sense and some impact in this interview. Thank you
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
My mother was my biggest struggle being that it was her souls mission in life to beat me down and stop me from achieving anything in life. I was beaten my whole childhood because I was just naturally talented at anything I did. I had a repressed memory which afterwards I began to see it really all made sense but my mother drowned me as a small kid and I obviously shocked her when my spirit slipped back into my body and she quickly recognized that I was not of this earth . So afterwards she began to unravel my life in other dark ways. My father at 15 nearly killed me when drunk beyond drunk grabs me by my throat and preceed to strangle me til I passed out fortunately for me his buddy came in or I’d definitely be dead . Coming to grips with a family like mine who’s only goal in life was to make me suffer and outcast me and anything else to bring me down in life . Now don’t get me wrong I was blessed with a very difficult family and I love them for all the pain they taught me . Walking away from my toxic family without hate or pain in my heart for them was my biggest struggle and test in my life. I am a child of divine love and when I love someone it never dies . Most people talk of love but there love has a shelf life and always comes with conditions. Mine does not which makes it really hard for me to walk away from them. But I did
