In today's BetterWealth episode, I interview Mario Torrez, Firefighter/Paramedic from Phoenix, Arizona, and BetterWealth client, who talks about his challenging upbringing and home life, and struggle with substance abuse since the young age of 13. After losing his family and barely hanging onto his career, Mario embarks on his personal journey of sobriety, invests in finding himself, and begins immersing himself with financial knowledge, including The And Asset.  With a renewed sense of purpose and inspiration, Mario creates ways to help others through business ventures and partnerships. Listen as Mario shares his story of turning his life around from rock bottom to thriving.

Guest Bio: 

I am Mario Torrez I am 30 years old. I’m a native from Phoenix, AZ. I have 4 children. 8-year-old daughter, 3-year-old son, 2 identical twin girls 17 months old. My current full-time career is a Firefighter/Paramedic with the City of Phoenix. I have had a Life Insurance Policy with Ohio National Life Insurance and applying IBC since September 2020 and been a BetterWealth member since September 2020 as well. I grew up in a broken home and lived with my sister and mom in Washington State. I grew up without my father most of my young life. He came back into my life and I moved back to AZ with him back in 2001 and have stayed out in AZ ever since. I’ve struggled with substance abuse since the age of 13. 2019 came and my family left me and I almost lost my career as a Fireman. At the age of 28 I got sober through Alcoholics Anonymous and various treatment programs. I lived in Sober Living for approximately 1 year. 2020 came around and I started to feel discontent with my role as a firefighter and realized I hadn’t made amends with myself. I went on a spiritual journey to discover my purpose in life again. I was not allowed to be apart of my twin daughters life at the time and was in litigation with the mother of my kids since I did not have 50% custody of my kids. After my journey I decided to open up a sober living home and October 2020 is when I obtained a property and started working on the project. Currently New Method Sober Living is ranked #2 in Phoenix. We are currently converting New Method to a Behavioral Health Residential Treatment Center starting June 1, 2021. Safe and Sound Transitional Living is a Non-Profit established in October 2020 as well. We are opening our first sober living home for men June 1st 2021. I have also started a Real Estate Business called Impact Capital LLC this year 2021 focusing on rental properties, JV deals and consulting.
