The Fearless Happyness Podcast Episode 87 with Jonathan York

Building Resilience with Jonathan York Jonathan is a successful entrepreneur and creator of The Resilient Man Project; Jonathan is passionate about helping men and women find inner resilience and unlock their full potential. Born and raised in south Atlanta in the early 80s, Jonathan remembers drugs and alcohol being prevalent in his life at an early age. He watched his mother fight addiction until it eventually took her life. His sister also passed away from an overdose, and other family members have or continue to be in a fight with alcoholism and some other form of substance abuse. In his 20's, addiction came out in Jonathan with a vengeance and eventually landed him divorced, homeless, broke, and in prison. With nothing but time on his hands while serving his time behind bars, Jonathan used those three years to find new meaning and transform by practicing visualization and building a relationship with Jesus Christ. Since his release from prison, Jonathan met and married the love of his life, and they added a beautiful daughter to their family. He has also built a career he is passionate about and owns two businesses. Now the devoted husband and father to a blended family of five, Jonathan enjoys sharing his story with people worldwide to impact lives and teach people to have a positive and resilient mindset. Listen in as Jonathan, and I discuss his deep struggles with substance abuse, the challenges he has overcome, and the turning point for him to turn it all around and find his path to FEARLESS HAPPYNESS!
