35. The Incredible Power of Shifting your Mindset and Loving Yourself - with Jevon Wooden

Jevon is a leader, mentor, connector and all around inspiration. 
Growing up in extreme poverty in upstate NY, the odds were against him.  He found himself going down a negative path with looming jail time and nothing but dead ends in his future. 
Somehow, thankfully,  just as Jevon faced up to 7 years in jail, he had a sudden awakening, which changed the course of his life and gave him a second chance to rewrite everything. 

He found purpose, accountability, hope and most importantly, self worth and self love. He realized that he could change his life, and it was up to him to decide when, where and how to do it.  

Jevon never did jail time. Instead, he went on to go to college, then the army, then got an MBA and became a go to expert in cyber security. And now he uses his story and knowledge to help others overcome insurmountable odds and realize their best lives and help them puruse and manifest their dreams.. 

We talk about many key factors to turning life around, getting what you want, and stepping into a life of purpose and generosity. There's SO much here. It might be my favorite interview so far.

In the interview we cover:
