August Turak Discusses Life Lessons, the Hard Work of Spiritual Growth, and Discovering Authenticity
On 3/7/2024, Eric Frasure had one of the most humbling experiences of his life and got to interview August (Augie) Turak. Augie is one of Eric's favorite authors and a gifted speaker. In past years, Augie has mentored the students of Duke University, NC State University, and UNC-Chapel Hill. In this video, he does the same for a former East Carolina University student-athlete. August has written excellent books like "Not Less Than Everything: One Man's Quest for Spiritual Enlightenment," "Brother John: A Monk, a Pilgrim and the Purpose of Life," and "Business Secrets of the Trappist Monks: One CEO's Quest for Meaning and Authenticity." These books are available on Amazon, and we encourage you to purchase copies for friends and family. Augie has been an executive at MTV in the early days, a CEO, a mentor, and a part-time monk. He is a student of life and as authentic as anyone I have met. Having Augie be part of Vigilant Path as the first guest on the YouTube channel is another example of his authenticity.
