Today, we’re talking about the “T-word”… trauma. Before you click away, this is not a downer episode. If you’ve been through trauma, big or small, you know how hard it is to bounce back. For me, without trauma, I wouldn’t have this podcast, my businesses, my wealth, my financial freedom, or much of the gratitude for life I take with me every single day. The worst months of my life used to define me. Now, they’re much of the reason I’ve succeeded.

Eight years ago, out of nowhere, I became paralyzed. My children, who were used to having a strong, stable father, now had a dad who couldn’t move, lying on a hospital bed with tubes running down my throat. I didn’t know if I would ever walk again, hug my children again…or even leave that hospital bed. The pain lasted for months—pain no one should ever have to endure—and still lingers today.

I had two options: give up or give whatever I had left in me. I chose the latter. Now, almost a decade later, I’m financially free, own multiple seven-figure businesses, and see life from a different angle. If your trauma is holding you back, keeping you from achieving great things, please hear me out in this episode. You’re not alone—I’m sharing everything that helped me move forward.
