Healing has different paths to travel and reach it. Today’s guest, George Kalantzis, decided to record his experiences, pain, grief, and thoughts in a journal that led him to find new talent.

A journal that became a book, reaching hundreds of people who thank him for changing their lives. This book tells a story of overcoming, where its author shares his battle with depression, addictions, and his divorce.

There is something about writing that allows us to vent, express ourselves clearly, create a fantasy story that takes us away from our problems. As a writer and author, I can say that it is a healing experience that everyone should try.
