018: Defy the Darkness; Choose Life with Dylan Sessler

018: Defy the Darkness; Choose Life with Dylan Sessler

"What you made a choice on does not determine where your life is going to go. It might have an impact on it but you can choose. -Dylan Sessler

We've all been prisoners to our own darkness at some point in our lives. Maybe it was abuse, maybe it was addiction, maybe it was trauma—whatever your worst nightmare might be, there's a way out! It doesn't matter how far back your darkest moments are—you can use them as an opportunity for growth.

If you're stuck in a rut, it's not just because you don't have enough energy or motivation—it's because you haven't figured out how to harness the power of your past experiences yet.

Join me as I sit with mental health coach, author, social media influencer, and veteran, Dylan Sessler. You may find relatable moments as Dylan and I talk about what living in darkness feels like and how we can defy the darkness so that we can live life the way it should be lived. We also discuss what empathy involves, how ego affects our ability to reason, how we can change our narrative, why we should start valuing ourselves, and how we can protect the sanctity of our relationships.
