From Crisis to Purpose: Our Story of Transformation
Alan Lynn Founder | Growth From Chaos
Alan Lynn has spent his entire life in the service of others, from four years of active duty in the United States Marine Corps to a career in law enforcement. During his time as a Marine and police officer, he failed to address his own wellness and mental health. In 2021, his world crashed around him.
He fell into depression, and on February 28th, 2021, while sitting on his back patio, he took the steps to end his own life. Fortunately, a higher power intervened, and he did not follow through with his plan. Instead, he reached out for help, and that small step initiated a journey of self-discovery and healing that was crucial in overcoming the chaos that ensued in his life over the next six months as he underwent treatment for leukemia and navigated the end of a 12-year marriage.
He has found a new purpose in life of continuing to help others by sharing his story and the importance of building a community around you, changing your mindset, focusing on your overall wellness, and regulating your nervous system to prepare for the inevitable trauma you will face in your life.
