➡️ In this jaw-dropping episode, former hustler for organized crime, Michael Swerdloff, reveals his unprecedented transformation from violent mobster to spiritual healer. Part of a notorious crime family in New Jersey, he spent a decade running credit card scams, cocaine heists, and violent operations that landed most of his associates in federal prison.
Once a man who plotted murder-suicide against his girlfriend and faced a mental institution, Michael's early life was defined by darkness. Growing up with a misogynistic father and a sociopathic brother who became a mob strong-arm and once held a .45 to his head, Michael's path seemed predetermined.
But after surviving multiple attempts on his life and hitting rock bottom, one unexpected discovery changed everything. The simple daily practice he stumbled upon in a small bookstore would transform him from a violent criminal into a force for healing.
