"Every person has to have something that they're willing to go past a roadblock." - Ethan Fisher
Imagine being a star athlete with a promising future, only to have it all crumble due to addiction and depression. That's Ethan Fisher's story, but it's far from over. In this gripping episode of The Real Common Treatable Podcast, Ethan opens up about his journey from the heights of high school basketball stardom to the depths of a prison cell.
His tale is a raw and honest account of battling clinical depression and substance abuse in a family that never talked about mental health. His life took a dark turn when he began self-medicating, leading to a tragic accident that landed him in prison for three years. But it was behind bars that Ethan found his turning point.
He joined a military bootcamp program and started taking responsibility for his actions, which became the first of his 'five keys to success'. These keys are more than just steps; they are lifelines that helped him reclaim his life. The second key involves setting realistic goals and holding oneself accountable, something Ethan does rigorously with five goal boards in his office.
He also stresses the importance of making wise choices and accepting their consequences, sharing a poignant story about a decision that changed his life forever. Faith in oneself is another cornerstone of Ethan's philosophy, and he explains how believing in his speaking career gave him the strength to pursue his dreams. Lastly, he talks about having a driving purpose—his mission to help youth avoid the pitfalls of drugs and alcohol.
Ethan's journey is a testament to the power of accountability, goal-setting, and having a purpose. If you're grappling with addiction or mental health issues, this episode offers not just hope but practical advice to turn your life around.
