Stopping the Victim Mentality | Adam Blum
Manage episode 423036817 series 2950640
An overweight red-head with ADHD, learning difficulties and no self confidence, Adam Blum was always an easy target...
Ridiculed by the bullies who called him, 'Blum', Adam was tormented and belittled from the moment he started school, all the way into his twenties.
The way Adam used to see life, he was a victim, desperately yearning for a different life, while convincing himself he was powerless to create it.
For decades, Adam believed all the nasty voices telling him he was useless, including his own, and it almost killed him..
But Adam chose to change the narrative; and although he's tried and failed many times on the journey to becoming Adam 2.0, he's never given up.
I've just read his book, you can find that and the link to his podcast, True Blue Conversations, below.
This is Adam Blum's story...
