S1, EP. 11 - Transform Your Mind, Transform Your Life (feat. Raul Campos)
In this powerful and deeply moving episode, we tap into the extraordinary life story of Raul Campos, a man who rose from the depths of despair to become a beacon of hope and inspiration through sheer determination and unwavering resilience.
At the tender age of 14, Raul found himself thrust into the role of "man of the house," facing challenges and responsibilities far beyond his years. With limited options and surrounded by the lure of the streets, he fell into a life of selling drugs, partying, and dangerous encounters that threatened to take him.
But adversity only fueled Raul's inner fire. Despite facing unimaginable obstacles, including being stabbed and shot in incidents that nearly claimed his life, he refused to succumb to despair. Instead, he embarked on a journey of self-discovery and transformation, fueled by a burning desire to save his marriage, his family and safe himself from elf-destruction.
