How Embracing My Traumatic Past Unlocked Overflowing Abundance

"I dreamed as a kid to be in this position that I'm in to be able to help people. I dreamed of this moment."

I had an incredible sit-down conversation at VeeCon, diving deep into topics that are close to my heart. We explored the power of honesty versus authenticity, the journey of personal growth, and how to build genuine connections with an audience. I opened up about my experiences with trauma, the importance of emotional healing, and how focusing on service has transformed my life and career. We also tackled some tough questions about masculinity and purpose. This interview gave me a chance to share insights from my own journey and offer guidance to others looking to live a life of greatness!

"If we focus on how can we impact lives, there's nothing else I'd rather do." @LewisHowes
