Author Joe Holt - Introduce Yourself Post

authorjoeholt in #introduceyourself • 7 years ago (edited)

My name is Joe Holt and I was born in Santa Barbara, California USA, in 1978. After living in orphanages, foster homes, two temporary adoptions, and a forced child labor camp, I signed to join the United States Marine Corps on my 17th birthday. My Asperger Spectrum of Autism, went un-diagnosed until I was 32 years old.

After two enlistments in the Marines as an Aviation Electrical Engineer, I had attained the rank of Sergeant, had served two tours overseas in Japan and South Korea, and had earned a National Defense Medal. A combination of military and off-duty injuries led to my medical retirement at the age of 23. I have been an Aviation Electrical Engineer, Lifeguard, Artist, Author, Life-Coach, Non-Profit Activist, Private Security, Public Speaker, Mentor, and so many more things besides over the years.

I am the father of two sons, Joseph Jr. and Justin, and currently live in Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas. I am a full-time writer, photographer, artist, and Ambassador of Aloha. Now, with nine books published, and a 10th currently in production, and all my first edition books moved into second editions, I have become a prolific writer

I am a full-time Live streamer on dLive.tv/authorjoeholt and have a live podcast I call "Fireside Chats." I interview other live streamers about life, cryptocurrency, world events, esoteric info, and more. I am on Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, and Twitter as #AuthorJoeHolt and would welcome any interaction. If you need any sort of life coaching, or just some love in general, I can help. All of my previous live podcasts are on Youtube.

I can't wait to meet you all!
Aloha for now.
Joe

Welcome to the Steem blockchain Joe. Sounds like you've had an interesting life. How do you feel about the military now you have left?
I'll check out some of your books and I've started following you. I'm really interested in the esoteric side of things which you mentioned in your post so hopefully you will publish something on that soon.

Take it easy

I may have autism and that can be a good thing. They can be artistic as they focus on the details of certain projects. Glad you are on Steemit. My dad was born in LA.
