That disconnection with That-Year-Old self is something I'm really working on. But we're really digging into the shadow and the subconscious and the spiritual side of life.
Imagine growing up with a strict religious upbringing, only to find yourself questioning everything as a teenager. That's exactly what happened to Joel Furno. Homeschooled and raised in the Christian church, Joel faced a whirlwind of conflicting beliefs when he entered public school. This internal struggle led him to question spirituality altogether, lumping it into the same category as religion.
Fast forward to age 19, Joel started a valet company that skyrocketed, earning him the title of the #6 CEO on Glassdoor for small and medium-sized businesses. But success didn't bring him peace. Joel battled depression and felt disconnected from his inner self. In this episode of 'I Am Driven Podcast', Joel opens up about his journey inward, his battle with depression, and how plant medicine helped him find a new understanding of God.
He shares how self-reflection and community support played crucial roles in his spiritual growth. Dr. Douglas Brackmann's teachings also had a significant impact on Joel's life, helping him see that traits often labeled as disorders can actually be gifts for those who are highly driven. This episode is a compelling mix of personal struggle and spiritual discovery, offering valuable insights into balancing drive with inner peace.
Tune in to hear Joel's story and learn how you too can find balance and spirituality in your life.
