Max Nijst, who is a drug and alcohol rehab counselor, was my guest on Success Profiles Radio. We discussed his background which included 9 years of heavy addiction, a divorce, homelessness, and jail time.

Max shared how addiction was a powerful force in his life and caused him to lose everything that he valued. He also shared how he eventually recovered and gained victory by being 10 years sober and now has a career as a counselor.

We also talked about his passion for jiu jitsu, how he is assisting a friend in teaching courses, and how he wants to eventually start his own school. We discussed life and business lessons that can be extracted by learning jiu jitsu.

Finally, we talked about how personal development and positive input has helped change his life. Most notably, we talked about mindset, worthiness, and the books that have contributed to his journey.
