What's going on, everybody? I'm Nick Santin Astaso, and I went from a depressed suicidal teenager

that thought you were either born in confidence or you didn't have it to a mindset master,

global motivational speaker, bodybuilder model, and this good-looking, I'm one of the passionate few.

Omar, yeah, I thought this was an amazing opportunity, but also just as an interviewer to getting me to

talk about things that I don't usually talk about, right?

You know, our adversities, the things that are really going to help people relate and really

help people, you know, make that transformational change.

And so getting out the goods and the stuff that people don't usually talk about.

So it just created that amazing, comfortable environment for us to have that transparent, authentic communication and conversation to impact millions of lives.

Hey guys, welcome to this episode of The Passionate Few Podcast today.

It's your host, Omar here.

And today we can sit down with none other than Nick Santinastaso.

And what's particularly compelling about Nick's story is that the guy actually has nothing but a single limb and a single finger. That's right, he was actually born with Hanheart syndrome, and from the time he was a kid onwards, had to figure out how to navigate his life, literally from how to eat to how to date, and everything you can imagine in between. And of course, because of Nick's relentless mindset to figure it out and the support of his loving family,

Nick was able to actually wrestle throughout high school, develop a ton of muscle,

and would later become a world-renowned speaker traveling all over the world and inspiring millions of people with his story.

So in this interview, you get to hear so much more than just his mindset,

So I hope you guys really sit back, relax, enjoy this powerful interview with none other than the man who knows no limits, Nick sentin and stasso. Enjoy.
