Manage episode 382716211 series 2808228
“I was beginning to lose my ability to feel. I would go to movies just to be able to cry, because otherwise I didn't feel anything”. If you’ve ever felt dead inside and that your job was killing you, you’re going to want to hear Robert Markowitz’s reinvention story. Years ago, Robert was a very successful, and incredibly miserable, criminal lawyer. And then something broke and he traded in his respected, high earning law career for a new career that no one would have predicted, especially not him
Settle in for one of our favorite breakout stories, as Robert shares how he traded in his high status job for a pair of clown shoes. Robert’s journey of personal growth is a quietly inspiring self-improvement story. Robert takes us through his life, from being a young man with low self-confidence who followed family pressures to go into law, only to find misery at the end of that path, to being a person who jumps without a safety net in search of happiness. It’s a candid, funny, and brave story about pushing back against expectations, confronting failure, and throwing it all away to find what you really need.
