Brett Moran – Drug dealer to healer, getting comfortable with your discomfort and taming your ‘monkey mind.’

A former drug dealer, crack addict and young offender, Brett Moran's life changed when he stumbled across a book on meditation whilst on a drug deal in a prison library. He has since become a published author, life coach and yoga and meditation instructor and his daily meditations on his Instagram account have helped countless people deal with life’s challenges. Sophie and Brett discuss their shared experiences of adversity and how they recognise it to be a blessing instead of a curse. They discuss the ‘victim complex,’ coping with depression and anxiety by ‘getting comfortable in your discomfort’ and Brett shares some valuable lessons about taking control of your ‘monkey mind.’
