What if the worst thing that ever happened to you was actually the thing that was always meant to find you? JP Francia almost drowned in his own bed from acid reflux. After a decade of failed medications and sleepless nights a simple remedy from his grandma changed everything. What followed is one of the most unlikely and inspiring entrepreneurial journeys you will ever hear. We get into gut health, blood sugar, the lies we have been told about medicine, and why your body always knows the truth before your mind does.

JP Francia is a serial entrepreneur who has built many successful businesses across multiple industries during his decorated career. His unique variety of success involves a dizzying professional journey spanning from commercial pilot instructor to children's TV executive producer, and advertising agency executive to chain restauranteur. Now, after a near-death experience with acid reflux, he is the founder of Life Cider, a CPG beverage brand built on the cure that changed his life: apple cider vinegar.

At some point you have to stop being the student and start becoming your own authority. Not because teachers and mentors are not valuable but because the whole point of learning from them was always to find your way back to yourself. We get into why we unconsciously hand our power over to controlling or domineering people, why your autoimmune issues and your silence might be more connected than you think, and why the moment one person in a relationship starts to come alive it either invites the other person to do the same or it breaks the whole thing apart. The revolution begins the moment you hear yourself say the words you have never said out loud before.

Most of us are brilliant at staying exactly where we do not want to be and building a perfectly rational case for why we cannot leave. The if-then loop. When this happens THEN I will. When the kids are older. When I have more money. When the time is right. Sound familiar? In this episode we get into why that loop is not a plan but instead a prison, and why resisting the system just builds a bigger wall around you. Mediocrity ends here. It does not get to pass through you. Keep going.

There is no such thing as the wrong choice. I know that sounds confronting depending on where you are in your life, but every choice you have ever made, even the ones that blew your life up, were revealing something. The shadow, the wound, the place where you still were not free. We get into why we freeze instead of evolve, why your symptoms are actually trying to bring you information, and why there has never been more competition for you to simply be with yourself than right now. Because they are monetizing your shame, your grief, your boredom, every moment you could have spent hearing your own soul. So get mad. And then get free.
