From Bank Robbery to Cancer Survivor: Dan Riley’s Unbelievable Journey

🌟 Welcome to Inspired Men Talk!
Today, we’re sharing one of the most powerful stories of resilience and transformation you’ll ever hear.
Imagine facing:
🔫 [00:05:00] – A gun pointed at your chest during a bank robbery
🔥 [00:20:00] – Being forced to flee your home in the middle of the night as wildfires raged
💔 [00:35:00] – A stage 3 cancer diagnosis that threatened your life
Most people would break under the weight of just one of these traumas. But today’s guest, Dan Reilly, author of Seize Your Second Chance, faced all three – and instead of giving up, he used these challenges to transform his life and help others do the same.
🎙️ In this episode, you’ll discover:
[00:10:00] – How Dan survived the trauma of an armed bank robbery
[00:25:00] – What it was like to lose everything to wildfires and how he rebuilt
[00:40:00] – His cancer journey and how his health transformation saved his life
[00:55:00] – Why small daily steps matter more than big leaps when rebuilding life
[01:10:00] – The five pillars of post-traumatic growth and how you can apply them
