Heal From the Ground Up
by Michael Hsu
Are you ready to heal your emotions, relationship, family, and career from the ground up? In this podcast, What sets this podcast apart from all others, is that Michael will help you both identify and treat the root cause of your pain so you can truly be free of it. 99% of the mental health and self-help field focuses on just trying to make you feel better without understanding why you feel the way you do. This creates what I call the rubberband effect. Imagine yourself tied to a light post with a large rubber band. You push forward with "positivity" but eventually because you did not address the root cause, you snap right back. Break free from this vicious cycle of treating the symptom and ignoring the root cause by listening to the podcast as well as joining Michael's membership community for full access to Michael's revolutionary methods and teachings.
