Breaking Barriers by Adapting Social
Breaking Barriers Celebrates 8 Years helping Entrepreneurs and motivated people learn and grow through the painful, yet true journeys of our guests. CEO & Founder of Adapting Social (Global Ad & Design Agency), John A. Vagueiro, created this podcast to provide valuable content to entrepreneurs starting, struggling or wanting to take their shit to the next level! We are blessed to have the help of successful founders, artists, actors, athletes, and television personalities who share their stories and how they broke out of their barriers to create success in their lives. They discuss their journey while cutting out the "sexy" elements and focusing on the challenges they faced that led them to break through the success barrier. Any fool can learn from their own mistakes, it takes a wise person to learn from others.

Gerri Chape and John Porras - Entrepreneurs
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Breaking Barriers Show, we sit down with Gerri Chape alongside John Porras for a powerful conversation about faith, entrepreneurship, family, struggle, and resilience.
At the center of the episode is Gerri’s story. He shares how growing up with a single mother helped shape his entrepreneurial drive, how he started building businesses at a young age, and how his relationship with God completely changed the way he approaches fatherhood, forgiveness, success, and service.
Gerri also opens up about one of the most difficult seasons of his life after being diagnosed with cancer while navigating business, financial pressure, family responsibilities, and the news that his wife was pregnant with their sixth child. Rather than allowing the diagnosis to define him, Gerri shares the faith and mindset that continue to push him forward.
John Porras joins the conversation to share perspective on faith, community, mindset, and the importance of surrounding yourself with people who challenge and inspire you.
