#147 | The Importance of a Routine | Michael Sean's Warstory

In case you don’t know, we addicts tend to be creatures of habit. Oftentimes, without something to do, we’ll slip back into a negative way of doing or thinking. That’s why having a routine can play such a critical role in living a positive way of life 24 hours at a time. 

 

This week, we got another banger of a warstory from Michael Sean, who inspired this topic. Tune in to hear how Michael-Sean’s journey from Pharmaceutical Sales Representative put him in a vulnerable position and soon had him compromising himself in ways he never thought possible. Today, he focuses on fitness and sending out a message of positivity amongst a community of like minded people.
