Episode #83. A sit down with Coach Dean Brown and all that he has been through. He has persevered and he has not given up! He is a huge source of passion and inspiration for so many!   Coach Dean's BIO:   I have been to HELL, won the battles, learned the lessons, come through to the Happiness I desire, and lived to teach you how to do the same thing!   There was a point in my life when I had the idea that everyone would be better off without me… I had been driven to the brink by trying to live the way my father taught me;   Work hard, be tough, don’t show emotion, be a hard-ass with everyone, never back down, do not ask – just do as you are told, never forgive, never complain, Hate is the most powerful emotion, Love is weakness, do what you’re told not what I do!   None of this was about me being allowed to be me! It was about me being who others thought I should be! There was zero peace in my heart as I tried to embrace things that were not me! I was living a lie!   I had always managed to rise to the top in everything I did, always through brute force, never in a state of happiness…    So, I attempted to kill myself! …more than once!   CRAZY! RIGHT?   I would have been my usual brutally successful self too, if the Universe had not stepped in to save me!   FROM ME!!!   But, the Universe knew I have a powerful spirit, that I have the courage and strength to change, grow, and share that powerful experience with the world of other professional men and dads!   So, the Universe sent someone that I do not know to this day, to save me from myself!   I even resisted, and refused that help, so that person called 911.   Round 1 – I thought I had failed, so… The next time, I had a better plan…   I would go where I couldn’t be found. I just had to say goodbye to my 5 kids first…   Again, the Universe intervened, and one of my kids wasn’t available to be there, so AGAIN, I was saved from myself…    Round 2 – …and I thought I had failed AGAIN!   Everything happens for a reason, my friend! We learn the lesson or it returns for us to try again!   Our next lessons are placed squarely in front of us by an all-knowing, all-seeing, all providing Universe!   That moment was the start of a new journey for me, on a new path, to a new future! That past is GONE!   I  realized that my life has a massive purpose that I was not seeing clearly at the time!    Now that I have seen the SPIRITUAL TRUTH of who I am, and what my purpose is, I am here to fulfill that purpose.   I am powerfully alive, Divinely Inspired, Here, forever in the NOW, and committed to helping you see YOUR own TRUTH!   To help you heal, change your current HELL into your personal path to Happiness, and sharpen your saw along the way!   The world is an extension of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, words and actions. You have already practiced the way to create your Personal Reality. You have already manifested YOUR future! Your life is currently what you created it to be, you were just not aware of the formula you were using by default rather than intent.   NOW, you should be able to see this fundamental TRUTH of LIFE itself!   You have already been the creator of your current Personal Reality, and you are totally able to be the architect of your own future & Happiness if you so choose. You just didn’t know HOW! or WHY! Or for WHAT! Or even WHEN!!   These skills are learnable, I know, because I have been taught, I have learned, I have struggled, I have practiced, and I have chosen to become who I am meant to be.   Now, I will teach you HOW to do the same thing!! You have already taken the first step on this journey!   You are HERE, NOW, reading this! Realizing that THIS was meant to be! You are in the right place, at the right time!   For more information on Coach Dean:   https://linktr.ee/coachdeanbrown https://mypersonalreality.ca/   If you need someone to talk to and feel overwhelmed you can always call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline:   1-800-273-8255   https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/   Also you can visit Nami.org for additional information on mental illness and support groups in your area.   Please email loudernow88@gmail.com if you have any questions or comments or feedback.
