Listen "002: The Turning Point That Changed Everything"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Brett takes you on a journey through one of the most pivotal moments of his life—the night he realized something had to change. Three years ago, his family moved from California to Arkansas, and things were tough. Finances were tight, his marriage was struggling, and he was feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders. One night, after a long, exhausting day, he lost my temper with his two-year-old son over something trivial. As he whimpered beside him, the shame and guilt hit him hard. He knew he needed to figure out what was wrong with him. That moment led him on a journey of self-discovery, diving deeper into positive psychology, personal development, and the connection between stress, emotions, and faith. He realized that while he had been teaching people about the power of nature to improve well-being, he was missing the most important element—God. True balance, joy, and abundance don't come from self-reliance but from seeking God first. Key Takeaways from This Episode: Self-Awareness Sparks Transformation – That night with his son was a wake-up call. Often, our biggest breakthroughs come when we recognize the moments where we fall short and decide to make a change. Your Mood and Stress Are Deeply Connected – He discovered that stress isn't just about external circumstances but also about our predominant mood and mindset. When we shift our emotions, our stress levels respond accordingly. True Balance Comes from Aligning Key Areas of Life – Health, wealth, relationships, and spirituality are all intertwined. When one suffers, the others follow. The key to a fulfilled life is intentional growth in all four areas. Seeking God First Changes Everything – He had spent years chasing success and self-improvement, but real transformation only began when he started seeking God first. His wisdom, not just personal development, is what leads to the beginning of abundance. This journey is what Seek and Grow Rich is all about—learning to trust God in every area of our lives and experiencing the joy and abundance He promises. My faith revival started with the Oceans Church podcast. I have never been to a church that has such powerful teaching in my life and has made a huge impact on me. If you aren't attending a local church I highly recommend you start listening to Pastor Mark Francey.
