Ep 22: Max Nijst- Nothing Is Impossible To A Willing Heart

“All I knew was how to stick a needle in my arm and booze up!”... Max admits as he recalls his past. Drugs and alcohol became more important than anything else to him for years. And the consequences were dire.

He was put in prison, he ruined his career, then to top it all his family turned their back on him. His life was left in shambles and he didn’t know how he’d get through this dark phase. However, he did make a comeback, once he was dead set on it.

Max is leading a “sober life” for eighteen years now and his transformation is phenomenal.

At present, Max Nijst is an entrepreneur, author, speaker, substance abuse counselor, and the list goes on... In his book called Fearless Happyness, he breaks down all the twelve steps he took to reinvent himself and reclaim his life. He also hosts a podcast, where his guests share their life experiences to inspire you to become fearless in the pursuit of your dreams and happiness. Blessed with an amazing family, he leads a blissful life now.

In this episode of The Liquid Lunch Project, Max opens up to Matthew and Luigi about his addiction, its impact on his life, his realization, and recovery. No matter what hard times he had been through in life, he overcame all of them heroically. Tune in to listen to the whole episode as it’s sure to challenge your excuses.
