Michael Hynes: Turning Trauma into Triumph

I've had, in a very real way, some experiences that reveal the mystery and wonder of life, and I allow myself to align with that.
What happens when life throws you into the depths of despair? For Michael Hynes, it was the tragic death of his uncle that marked the beginning of a transformative journey. In this episode of 'Steps to Sobriety', host Stephan Neff chats with Michael, an executive coach and author, about how he turned his darkest moments into a powerful story of healing and growth.
Michael's book, 'The Myth-Guided Mind: How to Unleash Your God-Given Genius at Work and at Home', serves as a testament to his incredible resilience. Growing up in Ireland, Michael experienced firsthand the brutal reality that terrible things can happen to good people. But instead of letting it break him, he chose to become a healer and a guide for others facing their own struggles.
Michael shares practical tips for finding healthy ways to connect—with people, pets, nature, and even through activities like visiting museums or enjoying live music. He emphasizes the importance of self-connection through breath, posture, meditation, or simply deep listening. Michael also talks about the courage it takes to heal. Sometimes, he says, just putting on socks can be a victory worth celebrating. His story is a powerful reminder that healing is a journey, often requiring bravery and small steps forward.
This episode is perfect for anyone looking to find light in their darkest moments and seeking practical advice on how to start their own path to recovery. Tune in to hear Michael's inspiring journey and learn how you too can transform your pain into your greatest strength.
