Any feeling you create comes from what you think
What happens when a dream is shattered, and life takes an unexpected turn? In this episode of 'Challenging Pathos', Glenn Marshall sits down with Adam Lowery, a mental health counselor, speaker, and coach who has navigated a tumultuous journey from addiction to a life of purpose. Adam's story begins with a childhood marred by abuse and a promising football career cut short by injury.
Faced with disappointment, he turned to addiction and crime, finding temporary success in the nightclub business but ultimately feeling unfulfilled. Adam's quest for meaning led him on a two-year walkabout across the United States, including a transformative stay at the Acoma Native American Reservation. This period of introspection and spiritual exploration became the foundation for his mission to help others. Returning home, Adam pursued a master's degree in mental health counseling and quickly established himself as a clinical therapist.
His innovative approach led to the creation of Transrational Structural Behavior Theory and the publication of his book, 'The Cognitive Rampage'. In this episode, Adam shares candid insights into the pitfalls of addiction treatment and the role of neuro-linguistic programming in reframing negative beliefs. He emphasizes the importance of empathy, acceptance, and following one's passion as key components of recovery. The conversation also touches on drug policy and harm reduction, challenging societal attitudes towards addiction.
Adam's journey is a testament to the power of uncovering one's authentic self and serves as an inspiring beacon for anyone seeking personal growth and transformation.
