Seeing some new faces around here lately, so figured I'd reintroduce myself! ๐
I'm Joshua Palassis from Canada ๐จ๐ฆ
A few things about me:
๐ฌ๐ท Greek & Italian ๐ฎ๐น
๐ Travelled to 18 countries
๐ซก Former Canadian military officer
๐ Studied Justice Studies at university
๐ Wrote a book
๐ฐ Spent years working in sales
๐ Started businesses, failed, rebuilt, and pivoted more times than I'd like to admit lol
๐๏ธ Host of The Connector Podcast
๐น Documenting my entrepreneurial journey through my Build in Public series on YouTube and X
๐ค Somewhere along the way, I earned the nickname "The Connector."
These days, I'm building PALASSIS Media and The Connector Fight Club, my Skool community where I help entrepreneurs, founders, coaches, and speakers build stronger personal brands, create better content, and develop relationships that actually open doors.
I'm fascinated by business, sales, psychology, communication, networking, personal branding, human behaviour, faith, health, and figuring out how to build a damn good life. โ
I've learned a LOT, and I've got a LOT left to learn, so let's grow together!
If you're a founder, coach, creator, entrepreneur, or just someone working on something interesting...
Say hi and let's connect! ๐
@Devsthetix Bulgarian split squats have a special talent for humbling everyone. ๐ Three weeks of voluntarily questioning your life choices apparently pays off!
@ARIKAHENRY Everyone wants the big breakthrough, but nobody's excited about the boring Tuesday grind. ๐ Funny how those ordinary days end up doing most of the heavy lifting.
@garyvee It's pretty cool how genuine connections can happen between strangers online. Never underestimate the friendships that start with a simple reply. โค๏ธ
@roderickalb_ That first payment must feel like opening a whole new door. ๐ Once someone pays for your idea, the possibilities start feeling VERY real.
@Devsthetix Being direct saves everyone a whole lot of unnecessary guessing. ๐ฏ You can be assertive without making every conversation a confrontation.
@Zilot042 Imagine everyone checking their phones and thinking you're texting from beyond. ๐ That's one way to make sure nobody forgets your farewell!
@BennySmile_alot It's frustrating watching dishonest people get rewarded while others play fair. But I'd rather build something I don't have to lie about. ๐ค
@rosie_88i Some people get surprisingly uncomfortable when you start believing in yourself. ๐ Keep building your confidence without waiting for everyone's approval.
@thesavasx Funny how the basics are easy to understand but tough to maintain. ๐ Getting those three right can make a HUGE difference in how you feel.
@KevinSzabo14 Comfort feels great until you realize you've been standing still. Sometimes you've gotta shake things up before anything actually changes. ๐ช
