Discovering the Power Within: Jason Shiers' Journey of Transformation

Join us as we sit down with Jason Shiers, who overcame immense adversity to find true healing and transformation. At the tender age of 5, Jason tragically lost his father and his mother was lost in her grief, becoming emotionally unavailable. Having no external support to deal with his loss and grief, Jason sought comfort in food, drugs, alcohol, and criminal activities. Jason's path of drugs and jail time eventually led him to 12-step programs and therapy. While he did reach sobriety, Jason never found the inner healing he longed for.  However, everything changed when he attended an intensive retreat in Los Angeles. and received a life-altering invitation:  be fully present in the current moment. This invitation became the key to unlocking Jason's inner self, revealing that everything he desired—healing, happiness, and wholeness—had been inside him all along. After this transformational revelation, Jason no longer needed therapy or the 12-step approach to cope with his inner world. To support others, he shifted his therapeutic & coaching model to focus on acknowledging the inherent strengths within individuals and encouraging them to discover their own true nature. Today, Jason hosts the podcast "Misunderstandings of the Mind" and runs his coaching program called "Wide World Coaching," where he guides others toward their innate potential and true selves.
