About the Book
“How to Be OK (When You’re Supposed to Be OK But You’re Not)” is not your typical advice book. It does not spell out a seven-step program to fix your problems or a list of mantras to repeat to yourself. Instead, it’s written as a guide to help you find your own way to mental and spiritual health.
Drawing on his personal trials, Mark Gogolewski offers a comprehensive approach for men grappling with addiction or a profound spiritual void. Through his insights and experiences, he offers a guide that empowers individuals to confront their struggles, find clarity, and rebuild a sense of purpose in their lives.
Mark shares his remarkable journey as a successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur who faced enormous challenges as a husband and father while battling addiction, a state he refers to as “spinning plates on the outside while dying on the inside.”
In his quest to conquer his addiction and embark on a journey of healing, Mark delved into a number of transformative paths such as hypnosis, 12-step programs, ayahuasca, religion, and meditation.
He courageously revisited his childhood, peeling back layers of unresolved wounds and traumas that shaped his struggles, seeking to understand and heal the scars of his past. Ultimately, he found a way to embrace life and discover inner peace.
Now, he’s sharing what he learned on his spiritual journey. “How to Be OK (When You’re Supposed to Be OK But You’re Not),” tackles the unique problems that so many high-achieving men face, with advice on finding your own solutions, asking for help, and dealing with setbacks.
