Wade's 3-step framework for transformation:

1️⃣ Remove toxic people, places & things

2️⃣ Create a non-negotiable morning routine

3️⃣ Build yourself FIRST (mind, body, spirit, business)

The truth? Your mind is the problem. Drugs and alcohol were just Wade's solution. What's YOUR solution hiding?

Key takeaways:

• Turning anxiety into positive momentum

• Breaking free from destructive habits during COVID

• Learning to see "signs" that guide your journey
