About this episode

From Rock Bottom to Resilience: A Story of Inner Strength& Spiritual Awakening


My guest today is the definition of resilience. From a turbulent childhood shaped by a father's undiagnosed bipolar disorder and a mother disconnected from empathy, he has faced more than most.:

Bullied at school, hit by a car at age nine, and told he'd never play soccer again—he defied the odds.

What followed was a life of extremes: drug use, recklesspartying, making (and losing) millions.

But the turning point came when surface-level solutions no longer worked. That’s when he dove deep into spirituality, rediscovering ancient wisdom from Stoicism, the Bible’s roots, Buddhism, and Japanese philosophy.

In this episode, we talk about the power of healing, thegift of quick decision-making, and how true transformation starts when you stop running from your past.

This is a raw, honest, and deeply inspiring conversation about turning pain into purpose.
