Justin Caffrey is an Irish business and family man in his early 40's who from a tough and humble childhood experienced tremendous success after he left his university course prematurely. He worked hard in the finance industry becoming a serial entrepreneur and self-described ‘unconscious capitalist’. This gave him tremendous professional and financial success but when his son Joshua died he found both his business and personal life close to collapse.
In this special 2 part episode Justin tells us his life story with themes around depression, suicide, psychiatric support, medication, meditation and alcohol excess. Gratefully the overriding moral of the story is one of accepting life's challenges to transform oneself to a life that's in alignment with core consciouness-founded values. It’s an epic tale and one that may trigger strong responses as you listen. But stay with it and you'll hear how Justin has come out on the other side. He's now an advocate for living a life of authenticity, with clarity, with a focus on meditation and with a greater awareness of the decisions we make about how we work and how we connect with those around us.
Listen to Justin's tale and ask yourself, are you ready for what life might throw at you?
