We’re looking forward to introducing you to Johnny Baca. Check out our conversation below.
Johnny, really appreciate you sharing your stories and insights with us. The world would have so much more understanding and empathy if we all were a bit more open about our stories and how they have helped shaped our journey and worldview. Let’s jump in with a fun one: Who are you learning from right now?
Vinh Giang. He’s a great communication skills teacher and his videos across social media have been so helpful. Just getting started but learning a lot about public speaking, positivity and general communication.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Johnny Baca and I am a film Director. Nothing brings me joy like being on set with my cast and crew. I could do it 24/7/365
Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. Who were you before the world told you who you had to be?
The opposite is true. Don’t ever let the world tell you who you have to be. Be who you are, naturally. Listen to your heart, follow your instincts and the blueprint of your life will make itself clear.
What fear has held you back the most in your life?
The fear of success. I know that sounds ridiculous, but I used to always fear it. Everything I put my everything in, I would get good at; really good at. Then, I would just abruptly stop and move on to the next challenge before I could really be successful at something. I’ve stopped doing this, and reaped the benefits of it.
Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? Is the public version of you the real you?
Yes. What you see is what you get but I rarely share private info about myself. I’m dedicated to my career and continuously challenge myself to grow every single day.
Thank you so much for all of your openness so far. Maybe we can close with a future oriented question. When do you feel most at peace?
I started meditation this last year. Reiki, frequency healing, affirmations, manifestation, all of it brings me immense peace. Slowing down your mind, body and soul and recharging is the best thing you can do for yourself. Especially if you’re like me where it’s go go go.
