Hey Weirdos! In this week's episode, I'm super honoured to be sharing a chat with The Self Development Coach, Johnny Lawrence.

Johnny is a certified behavioural change coach, level 3 counsellor, speaker and host of The Self Development Podcast.

​

He helps individuals make lasting positive changes, such as transitioning careers, overcoming addiction, starting a business, or finding an action-based solution to feeling stagnant and stuck. Johnny has spoken at various events, businesses, festivals and charities to share his gift with the world.

​Johnny has set himself the mission of helping as many people as possible create meaningful and permanent change.

In this mind-expanding chat, we talk about Johnny's traumatic past as a childhood witness to domestic violence and a survivor of physical child abuse, as well as his addiction with alcohol. Now 4 years sober, and after helping many individuals through his incredible work, Johnny shares with Work it Weirdo how he's used his childhood experiences to flavour his perspective and career, giving him a unique position to connect with and empower others to move through life's challenges.

We also touch on the following areas:

• Sitting with trauma and emotions in order to move on
• Dealing with triggers
• Reframing fear and bravery
• Improving your relationships through perspective
• Achieving your life dreams
• Being an original
• Navigating people feeling threatened by your success
• Facing adversity and handling challenges
• Communicating effectively
• Handling disappointment and expectation
• Sobriety and coping mechanisms for all addictions

Johnny also talks through the valuable work he does not only in coaching, and via his own podcast, but through public speaking, his upcoming documentary and the future project of his book. This guy is doing it all!

Such an incredible man with a truly inspirational and at times, jaw-dropping journey. His passion and mission are clear and it was such a delight to listen to his story and soak in his wisdom. You are going to feel you can tackle anything after listening!
