Shownotes

Peter Orozco reflected on the critical moment that changed his life. He described how his reactionary decision to increase his medication, driven by desperation rather than wisdom, led to severe consequences. This became an important lesson about making thoughtful decisions and the value of community support in overcoming life's challenges. 

Peter's journey from a near-fatal health crisis to a successful career in public administration and nonprofit leadership is deeply rooted in his commitment to community building. After recovering from his coma and struggling with financial and health challenges, Peter found solace, support and direction through the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS). 

Peter's experience with the NSLS illuminated the transformative power of social learning communities. He emphasized how being part of a Success Networking Team (SNT) played a crucial role in his recovery and professional development. In these teams, small groups of individuals share their goals and provide mutual support, feedback, and connections. Peter credited this community-driven approach for helping him regain his footing, access health insurance, and continue his education.

This week, you’ll learn about the harrowing near death experience Peter endured, why he is so passionate about community learning initiatives and the importance of being truly present with mindfulness in your life.
