No Pain Without Purpose - podcast cover

No Pain Without Purpose

No Pain Without Purpose is one man's journey towards self awareness, yet a message that's universal because we've all been hurt on our own journey. A father, successful business owner, behavioral expert, and flawed follower of God, Ted Gular shares the wisdom he's learned from the many mistakes he's made throughout his life. One day he lost everything that really mattered to him, and that day inspired this podcast. Ted's main message for you is: "There is no pain without purpose." Listen to find that purpose and overcome adversity - even in your worst circumstances; and learn how to focus on identifying that purpose instead of assigning blame. Ted's insights come from his experiences through his faith, humility, and empathy. Subscribe for his weekly lessons from real life.
