This week's episode features my friend Alejandra. She is a licensed Chaplain/Ordained minister and a recovery coach. Most importantly, she's an incredible inspiration. Alejandra underwent extreme childhood trauma, sexual abuse, and hardship. As a result, Alejandra dove head first into alcoholism and addiction.

Alejandra became well-connected in the world of rap and television in Los Angeles when she was younger. She also had a successful shoe line that further threw her into the world of money, celebrities, and partying. As the years went on, her drinking got worse and worse until she inevitably hit rock bottom.

Alejandra discovered that she was feeling spiritually bankrupt despite growing up Christian and with a strong faith. She realized that being a believer is very different than having a relationship with God. Therefore, Alejandra decided to get sober and reconnect with her faith. Alejandra has now dedicated her life to helping and serving others who have found themselves in similar situations.

The struggles never stop. Life doesn't wait for you before it gets easier. It's important to believe in yourself and invest in your passion and dreams and go for it. Stay the course, and know that pain is temporary.

Nobody knows this more than Mario Canon.

Mario Canon is the epitome of someone who has worked tirelessly in investing in himself with a huge payoff. Mario is a musical artist, actor, business owner, and personal trainer. He is well-known for his critically acclaimed singing and acting skills and has starred on renowned television shows like Chicago PD and Empire as Charlie Dupree. However, this brilliant artist from Springfield, Illinois, is not your typical musical artist.

Mario has never been afraid to take a chance on himself. His first job opportunity was to be a personal trainer at a gym. Through this experience, he was able to learn the value of hard work and build his credit, and after putting in work there - he ended up buying the gym himself! This was his first big break and taste of financial freedom. Since then, Mario has been extremely successful in life. All because he believed in himself and knew that the hard work he put in would pay off in the end.

Giving back to the community that helped shape him and showing other individuals that there is a right path in life if they follow the course is Mario's passion. He has done just that, and he doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon.

Before that, he worked in education as a teacher. Justin always dabbled with the idea of jumping into real estate but thought his unique and tattooed look would prevent him from succeeding. It wasn't until he hit the lowest point of his life that he fully immersed himself in this industry that changed his life and those around him.

Justin and Peter discuss how that low point in Justin's life was the catalyst for changing his career and circumstances. Justin found himself in a job he hated, despite being the best employee they had, and miserable in his relationships. So he made a change. While still working, he found the time to go to real estate school and obtain his license. Justin is now one of the more well-known real estate agents in Arizona due to his success and genius marketing capabilities.
