Adventures in Happiness with Jessica Ortner

Am I being true to myself? This is a question that we should constantly be asking ourselves. In today’s episode, Jessica has a candid conversation with her good friend and 7 figure entrepreneur, Mike Watts, who reflects on his awareness journey and how he has evolved, choosing to be true and present with his life. When Mike struggled with health challenges it forced him to pause and begin to take a close look at his life. He had a successful business and a growing family, which from the outside looked perfect, but his health challenges invited him to take a look at the beliefs and patterns that were holding him back. He shares how he navigated through his healing process, reflecting on every aspect of his approach to life and ultimately creating experiences that feel right. Sometimes life can knock us down to wake us up and can literally stop us in our track so we can take a step back and re-evaluate where we are heading.
