Owning Your Past to Make a Better Future

Owning Your Past to Make a Better Future

Sometimes, the past can be holding you back from having a better future. Past mistakes, hurt, and experiences can stay top of mind to the point we put them on replay. In this episode, I talk with Dr. John Delony about steps you can put on repeat to create a path to well-being to improve your finances, marriages, and relationships. Dr. John Delony is a national bestselling author, mental health and wellness expert, and host of The Dr. John Delony Show. He holds two PhDs – one in Counselor Education and Supervision and another in Higher Education Administration. Before joining Ramsey Solutions, John spent two decades working as a senior leader at multiple universities, a professor and researcher, and a crisis responder. Now as a Ramsey Personality, he teaches people how to reclaim their lives from the madness of the modern world. Dr. John shares some awesome advice on how we can change the stories we tell ourselves, and reduce the negative self-talk to help shape a better future.
