In this episode of the I Heart My Life Show, I had the pleasure of interviewing financial advisor Mark Fujuwara.

But guess what? This convo is not about money or financial advice...

Real truth? When my previous client and friend Tricia Brouk introduced me to Mark, I had no idea who he was or what he did.

But I was captivated by his story...

Back in 2016, Mark's life took a downward spiral after a tough divorce, and he struggled with depression, anxiety, and panic attacks.

Through a simple conversation, he got the idea to step out of his comfort zone for 100 days, which as you'll hear in this episode, completely transformed his mental health and reduced his anxiety and depression.

Now if you're reading this thinking you could never take that challenge, just know that he started small.

In fact, his first step was telling someone about his mental health struggles. He called his cousin, who also had mental health struggles (unbeknownst to him!), and found it liberating to share his story.

Now, Mark's goal is to normalize conversations about mental health symptoms in society, comparing it to talking about common cold symptoms.

He believes that this would be a significant step towards winning the battle against mental health struggles if we could all be more open. I completely agree which is why mental health is a big topic of conversation on this Show.

In this episode, you'll also hear Mark talk about how transforming his own life through his new practices also impacted his business. For example, he no longer works with clients who are not their true selves and is able to attract high-level contracts easily, without struggle due to his own energy and magnetism.

Mark's story serves as a reminder that it's okay to struggle and seek help, and that vulnerability can lead to personal growth and positive change, and he gives us simple ways to reduce anxiety and depression.

Let's dive in...
