Out of My Head: A Stubborn Person’s Road to Spiritual Recovery

This episode of Decide to Transform begins a series of personal exposés. These hard-hitting episodes are the result of a conversation with my wife (and also two-time guest on the show) Cindy Garza, who encouraged me to share some painful, personal stories on the air.

We start with "Out of My Head." For many , this phrase means someone is crazy, not thinking correctly. In my case, though, out of my head signified a state I had to reach, a mental place I had to get to.

For years as a young adult, I lived somebody else's life. Responding to pressure from my family, I chose a career path that ticked all the boxes of "status" and prestige but which left me feeling hollow and empty inside. This career--law and its derivatives--never did rise to the level of a passion for me, and I struggled for years to break away and pursue my life's mission.

Do you know someone who is unhappy in their life but hesitant to make a change? Are you that person? If so, tune in today. The changes are always worth it, and as I share my story, I invite you to look at ways you, too, can do things differently. I invite you to think of ways that you, too, can pry yourself out of your head and into spiritual recovery.
