In The Deep End

Sterling grew up in poverty, got in the wrong crowd at an early age. Got his first felony at 15 and then 5 more before he was 19. Spent 3 years in prison, got out, and had to relearn how to adapt to society. Without that knowledge, it was a long journey. After almost a decade of hard drug abuse, homelessness and incarceration, and parole, he found his way out through entrepreneurialism. Education opened doors. Hard work and relationships opened even more. Now Sterling has a few small businesses and assets and a family that is proud of him. Now he's helping others to make the changes that can open the same doors for themselves.

Many people assume that having a growth mindset means that you are willing to try something new and learn. In this episode, I talk about what it means in my own journey to have developed a growth mindset and some of the tools I use to continue to develop that mindset. Being a full-time entrepreneur, I know that I need to wake up each and every day and ask the universe for what I want to accomplish. I know my mission, my purpose and I don't let any challenges take me away from that no matter how hard things get.

I used to believe that the longer I stayed sober the easier things would get. What I realized in 2021 was that things can get a lot more difficult but what has changed is my ability to handle whatever life throws at me. In fact, 2021 was by far the most challenging year I have experienced yet. That being said, I can safely say it's also been the best year of my recovery and the most rewarding considering what I have had the resilience to move through. My resilience is getting stronger, my emotional intelligence has increased and I realize that I can endure a lot more than I previously thought. These are just some of the gifts of recovery.

Forrest was born in Austin, TX in 1961 and his drug of choice was alcohol but definitely not limited to just alcohol. His sobriety date is 09/21/2010. Forrest spent his early childhood in Austin. In 1969 they moved 25 miles east of town where he still lives today. Forrest own and operate a metal fabrication and welding business. Passions include cooking, fishing, restoring old things and most importantly helping others. His addiction became active at age 12. He didn't fit in or feel loved as a child and he really didn't know how to deal with it. Another factor at this point in his life was his religious upbringing. Forrest would go to church weekly and all he ever got out of that was a long list of deeds for which he would be sent to hell for. At this point in his life he felt no love from his parents or God, didn't have any real friends and he was sad and scared. Learn more on today's show.

Did you know that you can change your beliefs to resemble the life you want to create? I used to be plagued with limiting beliefs that told me I would never amount to anything or be able to create the life I desired. When I learned about Neuroplasticity and our brains' ability to change and adapt I started the practice of belief revision and now have been able to develop a growth mindset and change my belief system as a result.

This time of year can be tough on so many and this year I wanted to share an episode that may lift you up during the holiday season. I share some strategies and techniques I get to use this time of year as I used to struggle and sometimes still do. The longer I have been sober the more I realize that as long as I continue to work on my spiritual growth the happier I get.
