"Heal the boy, and the man will appear."

What's up, Kings and Queens? I'm Rich.

For the longest time – and I'm talking about a long time! – I battled self-consciousness and anxiety.

Maybe it's because I grew up in a Spanish household where roasting your loved ones is a sport; or whether it's from the all times my family threatened to leave without me because I was taking forever 😂

Whatever the case being, growing up in an environment where teasing was a sign of affection can impact your self-esteem and subconscious more than you realize.

Yet, coming from an unstructured home has been a blessing. It gave me a chance to understand myself, grow as a man, and embark on a lifelong journey of self-mastery.

I've been a knucklehead from day one, and honestly, I still am at heart.

What's changed though is my emotional steadiness and not allowing the world to dictate how I feel. I've cultivated 'Skin Deep Confidence' in my life.

From transitioning from labor work to a career in Sales, building people up, overcoming addictions and anxiety, to improving my relationships with women – every day has been a step forward.

So if you're thinking, 'I feel lost,' or 'I don't know what the hell I want to do with my life,' I was there too.

And what I’ve learned is you're not 'lost'; you're just FINDING YOURSELF. Because like all great things, it takes time. Day by day, brick by brick, inch by inch.

"Confidence that Starts Within, Shines Beyond." ~ Rich Morales

Cheers to a life filled with love, laughter, health, wealth and peace of mind 🍻
