Navigating Creative and Spiritual Journeys

What happens when success costs you your peace?

Tom Cronin spent 26 years in high-stakes finance — making millions, closing international deals, and living the kind of life most people dream about. But behind the high-performance exterior was a man quietly falling apart. Years of chronic stress, sleepless nights, and panic attacks eventually brought him to a breaking point. And that’s when everything changed.

In this episode, Tom shares the full arc of his transformation — from a nervous breakdown in his late 20s to discovering meditation as a lifeline, and eventually leaving finance to become a teacher, filmmaker, and mentor for conscious leaders.

You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes story of how he bet his savings (and his house) on a documentary project that didn’t go as planned, and how he rebuilt his life by learning to listen to his inner voice — even when it didn’t make logical sense.

This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in a version of success that no longer fits, and wondering what it really takes to pivot toward purpose without losing everything in the process.

We talk about nervous system healing, the cost of ignoring your intuition, how to charge for spiritual work without guilt, and why some of the best decisions in life start from a breakdown.

Tom doesn’t just talk about peace — he lived the chaos that made it necessary.
