Episode 57: Steve Bacon - Change Your Beliefs and Change Your Life

When life gets rough, it's very common to use coping mechanisms to help get through it, when what we truly need is to HEAL. Steve Bacon once found himself on the path to prison and death. He experienced so much pain and suffering in his early years of life — 14 schools, 2 marriages, crack houses, abuse, molestation, anger issues, alcohol troubles, and attempted suicide — all before he was 20 years old. It took a long time for him to see it but all of his trauma was a gift. After a profound reckoning, he began a journey toward healing. By uprooting harmful beliefs and choosing to look at his past through a new lens, he now experiences a life that gives him joy and purpose. Today, Steve is a Master Life Coach, Trainer, Speaker, and Author of Start Here: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life. He founded Belief Theory, a program that works to break the stigma of mental health in communities of color to create thriving families and compassionate leaders. Through this work with Belief Theory, people transform their self-image, discover their true purpose, and learn to build healthy, lasting relationships.


TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions of drug use and attempted suicide. Listener discretion is advised.
