8 - Why being authentic will free yourself from what is holding you back, with Alexander Gonzalez
Show Notes

Alexander Gonzalez hit rock bottom when the harness on a roller coaster ride would not close during his daughter's first ever ride because he was obese. After enduring jobs he chose because of financial reward but not happiness, he used his rock bottom to propel him to finding something he loves to do every day. He has since transformed his life.

Alexander has a masters degree in psychology and worked as an academic advisor and adjunct professor before making the worst decision of his life: leaving a career he loved in the hope of making more money. Thankful that was all changed just over two years later when Alexander determined to transform his life forever! Now Alexander is a full time stay at home dad and part time dream maker!
