Inspiring Conversations with Michael Unbroken of Think Unbroken

Today we’d like to introduce you to Michael Unbroken. Them and their team share their story with us below:

From homeless to hero, Michael Unbroken, is the Founder of Think Unbroken, best-selling author, award-winning speaker, podcast host, coach, and advocate for adult survivors of childhood trauma. 

At 4 years old Michael’s emotionally incestuous mother cut off his right index finger, she was a drug addict and alcoholic. 

At 6 his hyper-abusive step-father beat and hospitalized him. 

At 7 he was molested by a den mother in the Mormon Church. 

From 8-12, he was often homeless and in deep poverty and did what it took to survive from stealing food and only bathing at school. 

He got high for the first time at 12 and drunk at 13. By 15 he was expelled from school for selling drugs. 

At 18 he found himself deep in The Vortex and began chasing money to solve his problems. 

By 25 Michael was 350 pounds, smoking two packs a day, drinking himself to sleep, and attempted suicide for the second time. 

Then he had his mirror moment and decided to stop being a victim of trauma and to be the HERO of his own Story! 

Since 2016, Michael has empowered over 100,000 trauma survivors to get out of The Vortex, learn to love themselves, and become the hero of their own story. Michael has written multiple books including the best seller Think Unbroken: Understanding and Overcoming Childhood Trauma, spoken in over 80 countries, won investments from Undercover Billionaire Grant Cardone and is on a mission to end Generational Trauma in his lifetime.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Nothing about life is ever smooth. There is always going to be the next thing. There is always going to be that moment that you trip up but in that, you learn and in learning, you grow. The truth is that I have struggled significantly only to find myself wondering “why me.” 

I have spent decades learning about what it means to embrace struggle and to allow it to be present. I have seen both the darkest and brightest parts of humanity and in that, I have been fortunate to understand one truth there will always be struggle. We can all grow through the pain we have to endure and from that, we may be scarred but those scars represent our resiliency and who we have become through those lessons. 

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?

The thing that sets me apart is that I have dedicated my life to one mission – End generational trauma in my lifetime through education and information. – This means that Think Unbroken is not just a business or something about change it is the very driving force of my life. 

I am most proud to say that I have been able to serve and educate over 100,000 trauma warriors around the world! 

The one thing I want people to know is that no matter what your experiences have been that you are not alone. 

We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you?
I don’t believe in luck. Life presents you with circumstances in which you are either prepared or unprepared. The hard part about not allowing luck to exist is that you must always be prepared like a boy scout. And the reason that you must always be prepared is that when an opportunity presents itself, you must be able to capitalize. People will often blame lousy luck on lack of success or when plans are not adequately executed, but those tend to be the same people who have not done what it takes to put themselves in a position to be successful by being prepared. When you look at the luckiest people in the world, they all have one thing in common, when the opportunity came, they capitalized because they had invested the time it took to be ready.
