A special guest Wayne Shipman shares his story of homelessness to now owning his own home with a steady job as a semi-truck driver. He shares his wisdom of how he went from irresponsible to a responsible member of society.
Wayne was raised in a home with physical and psychological abuse during the five marriages of his mother. Even experienced a false adoption process revealed as an adult.
He couldn’t keep a job because of mental health issue and his own rebellion of his responsibilities as an adult and his anger that he couldn’t make it in this economy.
His big turnaround came after 14 yrs. with changes in Lifestyle and new mental habits choosing to not feel shame or blame anyone anymore. He found accepting where he is now and giving forgiveness to himself and his family instead of blaming them and stopped comparing himself to others. Taking responsibility for his own future shifted his mindset.
He got real hunger for skills and knowledge to know how to deal with his situations.
He found Tony Robbins Personal Power cassette tapes at Goodwill and it changed his life. He listened to these Tony Robbins tapes to change his thinking and his goal for self-respect.
