#364 Spellbreaking: Dissolving the Illusion of Problems — with Brian D. Ridgway & Abigail Morgan

In this episode, Roy sits down with Brian D. Ridgway, ”The Spellbreaker” and founder of Level 5 Mentoring, alongside Abigail Morgan, CEO of Level 5 Mentoring and a 27-year veteran of the coaching world. Brian shares the extraordinary story of January 3rd, 2011 — the day he hit total rock bottom, about to be homeless with his pregnant wife and two kids, and experienced an awakening that instantly transformed his life. He unpacks where the ”Spellbreaker” name actually came from, walks through his Five Paradigms that he says govern how every person on the planet experiences life, and lays out his ”Five Spells from Hell” framework in detail. Abigail shares her own turning point — 27 years deep in the coaching industry, including 8 years running Martha Beck’s practitioner training program, and how a decades-long physical pain vanished in a single 10-minute session with Brian after nothing else had touched it. They also get into applying this work to parenting and even to trauma in animals, and close out with where people can start if a four-day trip to Hawaii isn’t in the cards.
