RYAN PENLEY, a gentleman who is currently living in Florida, will join us to discuss how he got into the world of drugs and alcohol; almost died; and how he found his way out to survive and thrive in life. we will also discuss his new release, "Man Up. Sober Up: Eight Powerful Steps to Reclaim Respect, Conquer Isolation, and Thrive in Recovery". FROM HIS WEBSITE: Ryan, now 42 years old, knows the highs and lows of life like few others. Raised in Florida and having lived in both the bustling nightlife of Las Vegas and the serene landscapes of Colorado, he faced trials that led him to the brink, from homelessness to lying in a coma. Along the way, he tasted financial success but also the bitter pill of losing it all. At the age of 13, he fell into the treacherous world of drugs and alcohol. For years, he prioritized the fleeting pleasures of a party lifestyle over meaningful connections and self-responsibility. After hitting rock bottom, a moment of awakening guided him to a new path—one of sobriety, self-respect, and a dedication to aiding others in their recovery journey. With more than four years of hard-won sobriety, Ryan has transformed his life's adversities into valuable lessons for those still struggling with addiction. Today, he lives a life that is unimaginably blessed, exceeding even his own expectations. His debut book, "Man Up. Sober Up.," serves as both a testament to his resilience and a practical guide for those seeking to reclaim control over their lives. More than a survivor, Ryan is a beacon of hope for those still battling their demons. He demonstrates that from the depths of despair, it is indeed possible to forge a life filled with purpose and joy. https://www.ryanpenley.org

It's not hard; it's fun.” “You're wonderful. You just make mistakes sometimes. We all do, and we're all the same.” “We're not perfect beings, guys. Let's stop trying.” “However great you think your marriage is, take it to the next level.” “If men really want ideas, women love things like heartfelt notes. Most people just want to know they're loved, period.” “You can't break through to the next level in success, if you're married, without your partner coming with you.” “The power of two is far greater than the power of one, and the power of one is actually even less when you're partnered with someone and you're not getting along.” “You want to be a better leader? Be a better person. You want to be a better dad? Be a better person. You want to be a better partner? Be a better person.” “Whatever it is that you know you need to do, do it now.” BOOKS MENTIONED: Relational Intelligence: The People Skills You Need for the Life of Purpose You Want by Dr. Dharius Daniels (https://a.co/d/1nYxU0m) The Sermon on the Mount: The Key to Success in Life by Emmet Fox (https://a.co/d/hSdKMdv) PODCASTS MENTIONED: The Ted O'Neill Program (https://tinyurl.com/TheTedONeillProgram) Read to Lead Podcast with Jeff Brown (https://tinyurl.com/ReadToLeadPodcast) The Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast (https://tinyurl.com/CraigGroeschelPodcast) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://andreavitz.com/  https://liftedacademy.com/  https://tinyurl.com/LevelHeadedTalkPodcast  https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreavitz/  https://www.facebook.com/levelheadeddoc/  https://www.facebook.com/yourlevelheadeddoc  https://www.instagram.com/drandreavitz/  "The You You've Never Met: How to Stop Experiencing Pain and Chaos in All of Your Relationships by Sobering Up, Emotionally Speaking" (https://a.co/d/8VvlDQg)  "The You You've Never Met: Companion Journal" (https://a.co/d/gk0K1ZN)  FREE quiz on emotionally triggered behaviors: liftedacademy.com/remodel  CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen     Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen     Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/johnhulen     LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen     YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA     EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

This is why marketing works.” “If your emotional state dictates the quality of your life and controls you, then you would want control of your emotional state more than anything else in your world.” “There's no negative thing that could happen to you that you won't get value from when you actually let it happen.” “You are not depressed. You are unfinished.” “You're not broken; you're totally whole. You just have some things that are blocking you.” “Self-esteem is earned. Self-confidence, self-trust, and self-respect are all earned.” “Your purpose is the best of what you have to help others. That's it.” “If everyone is not in the right seat, then nothing is going to work. You can have amazing people on your team, and all of them in the wrong seat, and you'll never be successful.” “You're gonna have to go through the absolute worst pain you've ever felt in your entire life, but when you work through that pain, purpose is on the other side of that. Purpose is always on the other side of that pain, but we have to be willing to work through it.” “You wouldn't have an enemy if you were humble.” “Humility is the secret to healing and to a really easy life.” “You can make emotions objective; you can make them not a big deal at all. And when you do that, you're tricking your brain.” BOOK MENTIONED: You Are Not Depressed, You Are Un-Finished: Use Feelings of Depression and Anxiety to Fuel a Soaring Life by Dr. Ardeshir Mehran (https://a.co/d/7Sxp61q) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://andreavitz.com/  https://liftedacademy.com/  https://tinyurl.com/LevelHeadedTalkPodcast  https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreavitz/  https://www.facebook.com/levelheadeddoc/  https://www.facebook.com/yourlevelheadeddoc  https://www.instagram.com/drandreavitz/  "The You You've Never Met: How to Stop Experiencing Pain and Chaos in All of Your Relationships by Sobering Up, Emotionally Speaking" (https://a.co/d/8VvlDQg)  "The You You've Never Met: Companion Journal" (https://a.co/d/gk0K1ZN)  CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://johnhulen.pro    Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen     Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen     Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/johnhulen     LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen     YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA     EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

He was living the life-- working, going to school, and achieving goals, but behind the scenes, he was slowly moving into a dark realm. His first drink helped him feel more confident, but eventually, the drinking helped him "function normally." Falling deeper into the crevice, he was hooked on prescription pain pills and illegal narcotics and having alcohol-fueled blackouts with no recollection of what happened. His decline led to an addiction-induced coma, being wanted in three states, and homelessness. Yet, today, he is a different man, husband, father, and author of Man Up. Sober Up. This is the power of God. A Christian friend, taking a realistic view of who he was as a person, and a commitment to become wiser through the use of the Bible set the tone for his recovery. Tune in to hear the story of Ryan Penley.
