The road to Robert's success lies in his vulnerability and his desire to give back to others. His philanthropic endeavors are widespread in the greater Phoenix area, and he's making a big difference, everyday.   

His ability to be candid and vulnerable about very real struggles in his life are what make him the attorney that people go to across the valley for issues relating to criminal defense. He treats his clients holistically and has real solutions at his fingertips for their long-term recovery and well-being. 

Robert takes us back into the backstory of his life in this episode; to the suicide of his brother, Eric, and his admitting that he himself was an alcoholic. Taking full responsibility for his life, Robert became a person dedicated to being present for others, attendant of the suffering that pervades humanity.  

This is Robert Gruler, a gentleman and part of the authentic heart and soul of Scottsdale, Arizona.

Adam is an undefeated professional heavyweight boxer who is 8-0. Adam Stewart's story is about overcoming the path that is laid before you and being resilient. Adam's GED reads "The School of Hard Knocks".

Growing up in Phoenix, Adam tells his story of increasingly violent and unlawful activities that found him being taken out of class in high school and landing him in jail, tried as an adult, and sent to prison. He eventually wound up in Sheriff Joe Arpaio's infamous tent city. 

Upon his release from prison and achieving his GED from The School of Hard Knocks, he pursued football at Glendale Community College and ultimately Pittsburg State University in Kansas. He eventually was kicked out of PSU football for beating up too many PSU athletes and wound up back on the pavement, finding his way in the world. 

Resigned to work and trying to just make some money, he bumps into a man who recruits him to boxing, changing his life forever. 

Adam Stewart is making heavyweight boxing great again!

Enjoy the podcast and please give The Rise Again Podcast a rating and a review! 

There are few stories I've heard as moving and impactful as that of Ghazi Muhammad. His story of not changing, but transforming his life is awe-inspiring. Ghazi grew up a rebellious at-risk-youth in St. Louis and was sent to prison at the age of 17. He spent 7 years in prison and 3.5 years in solitary confinement, where he began his love for reading and study. 

Ghazi was released from prison and soon after began to build himself a life of purpose. Being a single father with four children, Ghazi committed himself to helping high schoolers in the inner city of St. Louis. He found his passion in helping others be the good they had the potential to be. 

Year later, in what turned out to be a twist of fate, Ghazi was invited to give a speech by a renowned public speaker. When he finished, he received a standing ovation. That event gave Ghazi the incredible leap of faith allowing him to transcend the self-imposed fears that were holding him back.

Today, Ghazi has impacted tens of thousands of people; ranging from CEOs, entrepreneurs, mothers, convicts and at-risk-youth with a his  coaching curriculum, FELON 2.0. Reach out to Ghazi for business coaching, public speaking or anything else you might need!

Beatrice Hervol opens up for the first time to share a very impactful story with us about growing up in foster care after being rescued from an abusive household. This is a story of tragedy, heroism, love and resilience. Her story will move you to tears and touch you deep in your heart. 

Did you know that for children who age out of the foster system, 20% instantly end up homeless, less than 3% of foster children graduate from college, and only find gainful employment by the age of 24 years old.

Beatrice defied the odds. Beatrice aged out of the foster system and became a college graduate with a job she loves. She is a family oriented woman with a family she doesn't take for granted. 

This story is pure emotion, passion, love and healing energy. Send your love to Beatrice and if you're looking for a home, go to someone with heart and a passion for community and family.
