Summary

For this weeks podcast I am joined by Paul Woyak, author of “Why am I Alive”. Paul was an avid diver who experienced a life changing encounter with a Great White Shark off the coast of California. Through this encounter combined years of suppressing and processing the trauma of the event, Paul may have learned his own answer to life’s greatest unanswerable question…why are we alive? “Why am I Alive” is now available on Amazon and other booksellers worldwide.
