Hear an amazing story of a powerful person who lost that power and prestige in the drop of an envelope. Poncho Nevarez was an influential, political rising star until his career ended in a life-changing destructive moment that he now calls one of the best moments of his life. He was caught up in the power and loved the political game, but it consumed him. To look for an edge and to cope with the battles, he became an addict. And that addiction led to him being investigated by the same people he oversaw as a high-powered legislative committee chairman. Hear the story of how that drop of an envelope led to a changed life, the type of perspective that only adversity can bring us, a new appreciation for family and friends, and his new mission in life: learning from his mistakes, rebuilding, and starting his second act.
You're going to face career adversity--maybe personal adversity--at some point. Your image and ego may be obliterated in an instant. If you're wondering how you can gain perspective to prevent it, deal with it, and understand it, this episode is for you.
