Key Takeaways:

Dr. Snyder grew up in an emotionally abusive home, a stereotypical bullied child, triggering him to turn situations around. He grew hungry in his quest to get more personal authority and power to become the person he wants to be.
The pandemic brought us opportunities to reconnect and rebuild relationships with our families.
The only thing we truly have control over is ourselves and how we react to situations as we encounter them.
Changing your posture and breathing is the quickest and most foolproof approach to shift your psycho-emotional state, anywhere and anytime.
