TW: psychosis, drug abuse, suicidal thoughts

We’ve had episodes with one challenge and we’ve had episodes with multiple, disconnected challenges. But this episode is truly a story of resilience and overcoming adversities that start from a young age and cascade into each other like a domino effect.

Our guest is Jenn Henry, a multiple business owner, best selling author, award winning speaker and lifestyle recovery coach. Jenn has been on a mission to shift the growing epidemic of chronic disconnection and unhealthy lifestyle habits that have become the norm in our society. She believes that our inability to connect to who we truly are and what we actually want in life, has led to the decline of our society’s mental, physical and spiritual health.

In this episode Jenn shares:

- Her journey from an early age to being arrested at 18, which saved her life from drug addiction

- Her psychosis symptoms and how she recovered by lying about progress to prioritise well-being

- Her extreme disconnection during drug-related incidents, but she craved connection

- Her struggle with lack of self identity

- How she found the highest version of herself by looking inwards

- The importance of surrounding oneself with the right people

- How she found a treadmill in the Rec Room and that started her journey in fitness to became certified in functional nutrition

Key Quotes

 “When my cup was full it could overfill to others, but when my cup was dry, I was of no service to others.”

“I am” is the most powerful statement in the human language! It is manifesting.

“I have changed, I have evolved, I have decided to be different.”

“People can learn how to become a different kind of strong.”
