Dr. John Delony is a mental health expert with two PhDs in counselor education and supervision and higher education administration. Before joining Ramsey Solutions in 2020, John worked as a senior leader, professor, and researcher at multiple universities. He spent two decades in crisis response, walking with people through severe trauma. Now as a Ramsey Personality, he teaches on relationships, mental health, and wellness as the host of his caller-driven radio show the Dr. John Delony show. John is the author of Redefining Anxiety which I highly recommend as a quick and impactful read for anyone who has experienced anxiety. Today is also a BIG day for John because it's officially release day for his second book titled "Own Your Past, Change Your Future." In our conversation today I misread the title of his book which is pretty embarrassing but thankfully John was super cool about it. But I definitely want to suggest checking out the book, by the time this airs I will have already snagged my copy for sure. John is one of the guys I lean on regularly in my own life. He just gets it man. He's one of the good guys. But above it all, he's an incredible man, husband, and father, and it was an honor to host him on this show
