Shoutout LA - Meet Rob Massar
      
        
          
            We had the good fortune of connecting with Rob Massar and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Rob, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
If you love something and you’ve gotten whispers of positive feedback then don’t you dare give up. If you merely like something (or are doing it for external rewards) and you’ve received little positive feedback…SEE YA! And listen to life’s whispers – your intuition and the universe’s feedback – they never shout. When those whispers tickle your spine, you can be sure you heard them properly.
