I couldn't afford to fail

"I didn't know what else to do... I couldn't afford to fail." In this candid conversation, I open up about one of the most challenging periods of my life: my early days in chiropractic school. After being out of school for 10 years, I transitioned from a "smart guy" who could coast through classes to a graduate student nearly flunking out of organic chemistry and physics. With my student loans at risk and a lifetime of "not finishing anything" weighing on me, I found myself in a desperate search for a breakthrough. This led me to an unexpected solution—hypnotherapy. In this video, we discuss: The "Black and White" Life: That moment when you finally see something in "color" and realize it's what you were meant to do. The Weight of Negative Self-Talk: Dealing with the internal voice that says, "You never finish anything." The Graduate School Reality Check: How I went from overconfident to almost flunking out of medical graduate classes. Overcoming Procrastination: Why I would clean the whole house instead of studying, and how I broke that cycle. My Hypnotherapy Experience: What it was actually like to go into a trance as a "starving student" and the impact it had on my discipline. If you’ve ever felt the paralyzing fear of failure or struggled to stay disciplined toward your dreams, I hope this story reminds you that there is always a way forward—even if it’s unconventional.
