After several health scares pushed him to finally confront deep psychological pain that stemmed from childhood trauma, Andy discovered a new approach to understanding his sense of self, life purpose and holistic well-being. This resulted in a career transformation that led him to leave Silicon Valley and embark on the mission to “help others heal from emotional pain, transform themselves, and discover their life purpose. Andy now aims to make Clues.life "the most useful mental health library on the internet." It aggregates and curates humanity's most important knowledge and wisdom regarding the human mind and human condition. Motivated by his own personal healing journey, Andy’s goal is to assist others by reducing stigma surrounding the subject of mental health, and demystify topics in an arena that many may have previously found unapproachable.Before his transformation, Andy was a Silicon Valley startup veteran, holding executive, product, and growth positions at unicorns like Wealthfront, Quora, Twitter, and Facebook. He was also an early investor in unicorns such as Robinhood, Webflow, Reforge, Blue Bottle Coffee, and Homebrew Ventures.In this episode, we delve into topics such as:The impact of childhood trauma on mental health and self-identityThe role of therapy in addressing harmful identity structuresThe liberating power of authentic self-expressionThe significance of space, play, and experimentation in emotional healingThe role of community and acts of service in the recovery process— — — — — —Listen now on Apple, Spotify, Simplecast.To sign up for the newsletter and podcast visit https://www.wheretheroadbends.fm/—Where to find Steve Schlafman:• Website: https://www.schlaf.co/  • Twitter:  @Schlaf• Facebook: Steve Schlafman• LinkedIn: Steve Schlafman—Where to find information on Andy Johns:• Website: Clues.Life• Substack: Andy JohnsReferences:James Hollis“How To Know When To Stop” Essay By Andy JohnsHormetic SciencesCarl JungAristotleClues.lifeAndy Johns SubstackTime Stamps:(00:00) Andy Johns Soundbite(00:51) Podcast Welcome(01:20) Introducing Andy Johns(02:11) Old Andy vs. New Andy(04:08) Parallels Between People(05:01) A Traumatic Childhood(07:33) Absorbing The Emotional Pain of Parents(09:01) A Painful Catalyst to Transformation at Age 27(12:42) How He Continued to Achieve In The Industry During His Crisis(15:02) The Physical Toll of Enduring Crisis(17:40) Finally Leaving Silicon Valley, Embarking on a “Coddiwomple”(21:17) Analyzing Identity Structures Resulting from Childhood Trauma(26:22) Rewriting Identity and Rebuilding Sense of Self(26:54) Writing As Part of Healing(28:31) Recognizing Synchronicities Around Mental Health and Wellness(29:57) The First Substack Publication: A Truth Bomb(30:40) The Freedom That Comes With Confronting Fear and Being Authentic(32:46) Honesty and Loving Support in Groups of Recovering Addicts(33:38) The Universality of Difficulty and Trauma(34:27) Social Effects of Liberated Authentic Expression(36:04) Acts of Service Playing A Role in Rebuilding Sense of Self(37:10) The Importance of Space, Play and Experimentation For Emotional Healing(46:04) How To Know If You Are Pushing Too Hard Past Your Range of Tolerance(52:03) The Effect of Societal Laws on Forming Identity(54:33) Self-Assessment: “Am I A Man?”(56:41) “The Real Adulthood”(58:17) Creating Clues.life To Share Wisdom With Others(64:55) The Human Being is a Creative Dreamer(68:51) Podcast Outro—Stay curious and keep exploring the winding road of life.For inquiries about sponsoring the podcast go to wheretheroadbends.fm.
