#23 - An Alternative to Assisted Living with Joshua Wilson

The topic of this episode is An Alternative to Assisted Living and my guest is Joshua Wilson.  Joshua was born and raised in West Philadelphia, and attended college at the University of Central Florida in Orlando where he found is passion for basketball officiating.  He dropped out of college to pursue his dream of being an NBA Referee.  He has achieved that goal and now works in the NBA G League.  However, today’s conversation is not about the NBA.  Joshua will share with us how his newfound focus in real estate entrepreneurship led him to path to serving those in need.  Soon after starting investing in real estate, he achieved AirBnb Superhost Ambassador status.  But then, Joshua and his partner found a way to serve individuals and providers who truly deserve to be served better.  Working with his partner he turned their real estate lessons learned toward the world of assisted living.  He is now an owner and operator of a 24/hr medical GroupHome servicing individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.  They are starting small but their impact is far from small.  This is an area that I recognize needs a lot of focused well intentioned help, and I believe Joshua and his partner are doing the work.  I hope you enjoy this conversation.
