Welcome to EZ Conversations! I'm your host, Furkhan Dandia. In today's episode, I sit down with the incredible John Lawyer to explore his remarkable journey from the frontlines of counterterrorism to spiritual leadership.
Join us as we delve into John's experiences serving in the US military, where he was deployed to Afghanistan, Iraq, and Kuwait. From witnessing modern warfare's complexities to navigating combat's moral dilemmas, John shares the highs and lows of his time in service.
As we follow John's journey back to civilian life, our conversation takes a dramatic turn. From the chaos of war to the quiet introspection of a spiritual awakening, John's story is a powerful testament to the transformative power of personal growth.
We explore how John found solace and purpose by establishing a non-profit spiritual community, where he guides others on their paths of healing and self-discovery. From the trenches of conflict to the sanctuary of spiritual enlightenment, John's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
Tune in to this episode of EZ Conversations for an inspiring dialogue on the transformative power of spirituality and the journey of finding purpose beyond the battlefield.
John went from receiving a bronze star for counterterrorism operations to walking through a swamp of sadness to an amazing spiritual healing and awareness path. John Lawyer's transformation is a testament to the human capacity for change. From 12 years in the desert combat zones to a battle within, he shifted his focus from soldiering to spiritual seeking. Today, he co-founded Kishar, a non-profit online spiritual community that allows people to share their journeys and explore their unique spiritual paths. John is an Omnist and believes in the validity of great human thought from around the world and across time. He is a higher purpose and transformational coach.
