131: Tommy Breedlove on How to Live Your Truth Beyond the Bottom Line

At one point during our conversation, today's PYP MVP Tommy Breedlove paused and said: "I am a Picasso of screwing up. The journey never ends. When the train is running on all cylinders, the demons and the noise show up even stronger." He then goes on to tell a story he's never told anyone, one that involves flashing blue lights and having a gun held to his head. He also shares a story about a time when a trusted adviser asked him the following question: "Do you want to live your life? Or do you want to live your story?" This question stopped Tommy in his tracks and caused him to make some big changes, including doubling down on serving others. What happened next was nothing short of magical. In fact, Tommy Breedlove proves that when you start living your life from a position of serving others -- everything changes.   Everything.
