After approximately eight years, he was then faced with another set of challenges as he experienced the pain and humiliation of divorce, bankruptcy and foreclosure and found himself contemplating suicide . Bankrupt and alone, he committed to rebuilding his life which propelled him to begin a 25 year inner journey of personal transformation which resulted in him discovering his true self and his passions for living.
