Welcome to Passion Struck, the #1 Alternative Health podcast, where we uncover what it truly means to matter.
I’m John Miles, author, Navy veteran, and former Fortune 50 executive. You built a life that looks good; now let’s build one that feels true.
Each week, I sit down with leading neuroscientists, psychologists, health experts, and thought leaders to explore the science of purpose, the psychology of lasting change, and the mind–body connection that fuels a meaningful life.
This is your corner of the internet to pause, reflect, and reimagine who you are and who you can become.
Because mattering isn’t something you earn. It’s something you choose.
Stop existing. Start mattering.
New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
Ever wondered how you maintain your forward momentum in the face of extreme adversity? How can you keep anxiety and depression at bay even when all odds are stacked against you?
In today’s show, John shares his wisdom on confronting your reality, unlocking human potential, and a positive mindset.
Nearly 30 years back, John had the good fortune of meeting Admiral James Stockdale in his sophomore year at the Naval Academy. There was no better inspiration than Admiral Stockdale, who had been held a POW for a couple of years, was nearly beaten to death, and yet miraculously survived.
So, how did Admiral Stockdale survive the brutality of his captors? Despite everything, how did he manage to cling on to hope and positivity?
With the pandemic outbreak, many of us are experiencing pangs of anxiety and depression. While it is tempting to withdraw into a shell, John reminds us WHY you need to face your reality head-on in today's show.
You will learn how visualizing your future can help you refocus on what you need to do today to move towards your end goal.
Enjoy!
