What if the life you’re living today… wasn’t truly yours, but a “default script” handed to you by society?
In this raw and inspiring episode of *Conversations That Count*, Jeihan sits down with Blake, who shares how losing everything... bankruptcy, heartbreak, and hitting rock bottom became the catalyst for rebuilding a life fully by design.
Together, they dive deep into the difference between living by default versus design, why breakdowns are often the breakthrough, and how pain, when channelled, can become your greatest purpose.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that alignment isn’t found in following the rules it’s created by rewriting them.
