Happy Holidays and (if you celebrate), Merry Christmas!
I hope you and the people in your life have a fun, joyous, safe and healthy holiday.
I did want to share with you the latest episode of the Adulthood:Revisited podcast.
I have Nelson Tressler as a guest. Nelson has an incredibly powerful story about overcoming victimhood mentality. He was born into a family that experienced alcoholism, abuse, and stigma. Why stigma? His grandfather killed a police officer before he was born. At the trial, Nelson's mother testified that the cop had raped her, and when her father learned of that, he was filled with such rage that he sought out and killed the cop.
That's the setting into which Nelson was born. He grew up in a struggling household. His stepfather was abusive and an alcoholic.
His path involved starting college, enrolling in the Air Force because he couldn't afford college, fulfilling his service and receiving an honorable discharge. After that, Nelson's entrepreneurship journey blossomed. He went on to launch several successful businesses, and was one of the top performing real estate professionals in his area for years.
Nelson is also one of the founders of the iGotSmarter app, an app designed to help people accomplish their goals. He's also authored "The Unlucky Sperm Club," where he shares the details of his journey to date.
Again, I hope you and the people in your life enjoy the holiday, and have a super merry Christmas!
