Dr Jorge Valdes is the author of Narco Mindset: The Life Principles that a Cocaine Drug Lord Learned on His Journey to Find Meaning in His Life and Coming Clean: The True Story of a Cocaine Drug Lord and His Unexpected Encounter with God and other books.
His true life story could not be more jaw dropping. As a young man in his twenties with an insatiable thirst for money and power, Jorge Valdes was a founding member of a group that became known as Colombia’s Medellin drug cartel. His key position as head of U.S. operations brought him into direct contact with presidents, generals, Hollywood celebrities, hired killers, and kidnappers. This Cuban immigrant, raised in poverty, was living the high life in more ways than one. His deeds took him from the lap of luxury to the depths of prison and back again. Then an incredible thing happened: Jorge Valdes encountered a person much more powerful than the strongest drug lord, someone who offered something more satisfying than women, drugs, money, prestige or power. Today he uses his Narco Mindset not only to tell his story of a drug lord who found redemption, but uses his life to shed light on the life principles and decisions he made. The lessons he learned the hard way will challenge you to stop, listen and reflect on your life, inspiring you to act on that reflection, as you discover hope, passion, meaning, and what is truly important in life. His websites are: www.narcomindset.com  and www.jorgevaldesphd.com
