In this deeply inspiring episode, we dive into the powerful journey of transforming pain into purpose. Yves, a psychotherapist and mental health advocate, shares his personal story of feeling lost, battling depression, and hitting a life-defining moment where he decided to stop being a shadow of himself.

From struggling with uncertainty and emotional turmoil to embracing a new chapter in life, Yves’ journey reminds us that it’s never too late to reinvent ourselves. His decision to move through a painful divorce, rediscover his true self, and dedicate his life to helping others shows that transformation is always possible—even when it feels like we’re stuck in the dark.

• How hitting rock bottom can be the catalyst for change

• The importance of showing up fully for yourself and others

• How to find your true purpose when you’re feeling directionless

• The power of self-awareness and making bold decisions for your future

If you’re ready to embrace change, heal from the past, and create a life of meaning and purpose, this episode is for you. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that will inspire you to take your own journey from pain to purpose.
