Todd Sylvester Inspires Beliefcast

Carlos Vasquez’s story is one of redemption, resilience, and relentless growth. Freed from prison in 2021, he refused to be defined by his past. Instead, he pursued higher education, earning a degree in entrepreneurship from the Drucker School of Management — and founded How To Battle, a movement dedicated to transformation and leadership.   Carlos’s book The PRICE: Five Principles to Break the Bonds of Trauma and Achieve Personal Success has become a beacon of hope across the globe. Through his speaking, coaching, and leadership training, he brings his message of resilience and empowerment to corporations, universities, foster homes, and even back to the prisons where his journey began.   Carlos reminds us that no matter where you start, you can rise, rebuild, and redefine your story. His life proves that freedom begins in the mind.   … #Beliefcast #FromConvictToCEO #TransformationJourney #Resilience #SecondChances #PurposeDriven   ….
