The Dark Side of Success No One Talks About

What happens when you climb to the top… and still feel lost? In this powerful episode, I sit down with Michael Unbroken — bestselling author, award-winning speaker, coach, and host of the Think Unbroken Podcast — for one of the most raw, honest conversations we've ever had on this show. Michael grew up in a world most people can't imagine. Poverty, abuse, addiction, absent parents, and a racist grandmother who raised him. By 25, he'd made his first million — and blown every penny. By 26, he was 350 lbs, addicted, and sitting in a bathroom with a gun in his mouth. But that wasn't the end. It was the beginning. In this episode we cover: 🔥 Growing up in extreme poverty and abuse — and how it shaped him 💀 The moment he hit true rock bottom (and what pulled him back) 🚗 Driving across the country with $500 and no plan to save his own life 😢 Not crying for 15 years — and the journal that broke it all open 💸 Making millions and feeling completely empty 🎤 Winning Grant Cardone's Speak-Off and why he calls it "the worst thing that happened to him" 🌍 Disappearing to Asia to rediscover his purpose 🏫 Why he's now focused on speaking to high school students ❤️ The one thing that truly drives him every single day This is not just a business conversation. This is a conversation about what it actually takes to build a life worth living.
