Ep 115: Behind the Leader with José Hernández - The Enduring Power of Knowing Your “Why?”

Former NASA astronaut José Hernández first knew he wanted to go to space when he was 10 years old. Remarkably, that dream never faded, and over time grew into a deep-seated sense of mission, purpose, and an overall sense of “Why?” As José talks about his life with podcast host Jason Jaggard, again and again, you will hear José say, “Because I wanted to go to space.” That clarity helped sustain his dream over decades when life got challenging or confusing. If you’ve ever wanted to see how the power of “Why?” works in an everyday life, then this conversation is for you.
