Eric shares his deeply personal journey from heroin addiction, homelessness, and facing prison in his twenties to building a meaningful life rooted in purpose, intention, and service.Through honest reflection, Eric unpacks how addiction shaped his understanding of change, why willpower alone isn’t enough, and how learning the skill of change helped him rebuild his life from the inside out. The conversation explores identity, shame, recovery, small daily commitments, and the power of choosing progress over perfection. Eric also opens up about transitioning from the software world into full-time podcasting, coaching, and thought leadership, prioritizing quality of life over financial excess, and why small habits compound into massive transformation.
