E38: Mike Chang - Why being Fit, Rich and Successful won’t make you happy
Mike Chang is a previous internet celebrity, and founder of one of the most popular fitness YouTube channels - sixpackshortcut - with more than 4.5 million subscribers in 2015. He turned his fitness passion into an 8 figures business and despite living the American dream left his business and totally disappeared from the internet after realizing he felt miserable.
Today Mike is a new, wiser man, husband, and father with a greater purpose: helping people not only be fit but also feel happiness, peace, and joy.
In this episode, he shares his journey to finding inner peace, including his accidental discovery of unlocking dormant energy through psychedelics. Mike explains why achieving big goals won't necessarily make you happier, the importance of controlling your attention, and how being authentic leads to purpose.
