What if everything you believed about mental health, addiction, and healing was wrong? George Brooks has lived through it all—childhood trauma, emotional abuse, addiction, divorce, and battles with mental health. After a 10-year cocaine addiction and a lifetime of struggles, he made a choice: heal or lose everything.

Now, as the CEO of Meta Association and founder of Meta Mentoring Mindset & Coaching, George is on a mission to destigmatize mental health, break the cycle of self-destruction, and help others take control of their lives.

In this powerful conversation, he shares:

🔥 The real reason people turn to addiction (Hint: It's NOT what you think)

🔥 Why therapy alone isn’t enough—you have to do the work outside of sessions

🔥 How social media is making people emotionally numb and fueling a culture of silent suffering

🔥 The hard truth about healing: Why accountability and self-respect are non-negotiable

🔥 Why "playing the victim" will keep you stuck foreverThis is an honest, unfiltered conversation about mental health, self-mastery, and the uncomfortable but necessary journey to self-healing.

💬 Are you ready to stop making excuses and take back control of your life?
