💥 Former Navy SEAL turned Master Healer Christopher Maher joins us to share his remarkable journey from trauma to transformation. Born bow-legged with both legs broken at just two days old, Christopher endured unimaginable childhood abuse and tragedy before finding his path to the elite Navy SEALs. After facing life-threatening hypothermia during training and later battling severe physical pain, Christopher embarked on a healing journey that changed everything.
In this powerful conversation, Christopher reveals how generational trauma creates stress that keeps us trapped in fight-or-flight mode without us even knowing it. He shares his experiences living in a cave in complete darkness for 28 days, fasting for 44 days, and developing revolutionary healing techniques that have helped countless people-from CEOs to professional athletes-break free from their own trauma.
Christopher's story is both tragic and triumphant, demonstrating how to use past suffering as fuel for transformation. Learn his practical steps to reduce stress, improve wellbeing, and ensure your final years aren't defined by accumulated tension and toxicity. His message is clear: "When humans feel good, they do good."
