On this Episode of Unbound Conversations
Brian went from rock bottom to becoming a leading advocate for empowering others to overcome trauma and addiction. Today, he is a neuroscientist and resilience specialist. In this episode, he reveals the power of affirmations, morning routines, exercise, and much more, demonstrating that the key to behaviour change is to keep it simple.
We encourage you to adopt some of his methods and develop a toolbox to dip into when challenges arise. Through mindset shifts, the same adversity that once drove Brian’s anxiety now fuels his drive to succeed – adversity doesn't define you, your response does.
