"I had to go through all that shit to come out on top and for him to be like: look, look what the fuck you can do." - Dylan Sessler
Have you ever wondered how someone can turn the darkest chapters of their life into a source of strength? In this episode of 'The Primal Mindset', Chris Fontana sits down with Dylan Sessler, a US Army Veteran, mental health advocate, and author, to share his extraordinary journey. Dylan's story is one of overcoming immense adversities, including parental suicide, PTSD, child abuse, bullying, war, and life-altering injuries.
He opens up about his battle with depression and anxiety and how he became a survivor of a suicide attempt in 2015. Through intense self-awareness, Dylan transformed his life and now dedicates himself to helping others as a coach and speaker. He candidly discusses how joining the military was more about escaping his past than serving his country, and how it ultimately led him to a place where he could begin to heal.
Dylan stresses the importance of seeking help and talking about one's feelings, especially during the toughest times. He also reflects on the impact of growing up without a father figure and his struggle with alcohol addiction, highlighting the need for healthier coping mechanisms. Dylan shares his thoughts on building confidence in children and the crucial role of men in treating women with respect. He emphasizes reconnecting with nature and pushing oneself beyond perceived limits as essential steps in personal growth.
This conversation is a heartfelt exploration of resilience and the power of self-awareness. Tune in to hear Dylan's inspiring story and learn how he now helps others overcome their own battles.
