My guest today is about to inspire us all to let go of the past, connect with the present, and expand into the future.

Diego Perez is a poet, a meditator, and a best-selling author.

While his name may not sound familiar, his pen name likely will.

Diego goes by Young Pueblo.

Inspiring millions with his writing, Diego's books and poetry focus on the power of self-heeling, creating healthy

relationships and the wisdom that comes when we truly work on knowing

ourselves. Diego's own path to deep healing began after struggling with physical and mental health.

Searching for a way forward, he found the answer was to turn inward,

examining the fears and anxiety he'd been running from.

After dedicating himself to meditation and tapping into his intuition,

Diego found true healing was possible.

And now he's using his own experiences to inspire healing in others.

Diego is widely known on Instagram and across social media where he shares expansive and thought-provoking ideas, distilling them down to just a few words.

And guys, he is such a light, his words are so powerful, they seem to find us just when we need the most and they hit us right in the

soul.
