290: D Arlando Fortune: From Facing 5 Felonies to Finding Fatherhood

from Shameless Leadership · host Sara Dean

Fortune is a Shameless Dad and the oldest of two kids. These things should have made him a responsible, motivated leader – which he is today. But his road to get here reads differently… Although he graduated from university with honors & an opportunity to play professional baseball, he chose to become an accountant for the government. But, the government wasn’t challenging enough for his active imagination. So, he started studying successful people and decided that’s what he wanted to do with his life. It was at this point that his life changed. It got much worse before it got better. Financial success in real estate revealed emotional & mental wounds that needed healing. Before he could make those shifts in mindset, he battled addiction, 5 felony charges, and found himself facing a potential 12-year prison sentence. He then wrote a book about his journey & the lessons he learned along the way. As a father, coach, author, & speaker, Fortune brings a unique approach to understanding the wisdom of living a purpose-driven life. You’ll learn from him not only the practical steps for improving the major areas of your life; but also the scientific evidence & spiritual elements that lead to a blessed life and business. Listen in to hear Fortune share: His entrance into fatherhood as an addict How facing 5 felony charges and a 12-year prison sentence turned his life around How he got clean in order to show up for his kids The power of habit in overcoming addiction How he uses his No Doubt Mindset to stay focused and successful Links Mentioned: Connect with Fortune: D Arlando Fortune Download Fortune’s free audiobook: Overcoming Procrastination Follow Fortune on Facebook Follow Fortune on Instagram Thank you to our sponsors: Canvas People: To get a FREE 11x14 canvas print (just pay shipping) of any of your photos, go to Canvas People and use the code SHAMELESS at checkout. care of: For 25% off your first month of personalized care/of vitamins, visit Take Care Of and enter the code SHAMELESS at checkout.
