In this episode, Michael shares his powerful journey from rock bottom to transformation and provides five actionable strategies for anyone feeling stuck, hopeless, or trapped in destructive cycles. Drawing from his own experience of being 350 pounds, smoking two packs a day, and drinking himself to sleep at age 25 after a traumatic childhood filled with abuse, homelessness, and addiction, Michael offers hard-won wisdom for those ready to change their lives.
Michael emphasizes that "the work works if you do the work," that change happens one moment and one decision at a time, and that the skills that got you to rock bottom won't get you out, requiring humility and letting go of ego.
