Episode 1 - Andrew T. Austin
Andrew Austin is a Therapist, Trainer and Author.
He has a background in Neurosurgery and Clinical Neurology.
He will not hesitate to call out charlatans, systemic dysfunction or idiots.
Not being a yes man has earned him a reputation and some enemies along the way.
I've known Andrew some 12 years, and wanted to shed light on how he got to think the way he does, how he affected personal change within himself and went on to be at the leading edge of his field.
