About this listen
What if the very things that broke you were preparing you to shine? At nine years old, Maruis Aldridge learned that survival meant silence. Growing up in apartheid-era South Africa, he carried secrets too heavy for a child's shoulders. Sexual abuse. Crushing shame. A body that became both shield and prison. By his mid-thirties, the weight became unbearable. Panic attacks. Psychiatric wards. Suicidal plans. He was drowning until he stopped waiting to be saved and became his own lighthouse. This is the story of that return. From illegal immigrant to spiritual healer. From 158 kilograms of protective armor to dance floors where shame was finally shed. From pharmaceutical fog to plant medicine revelations that whispered: "You don't need to become divine. You already are."
Raw, hilarious, and devastatingly honest, From Broken to Brilliant shows you how to heal trauma without expensive retreats. Reclaim your body after it's been weaponized. Discover the light you've been seeking was inside you all along. If you've ever felt too broken to be loved or afraid your past disqualifies you from joy, this book is your permission slip to come home. Where there is light, darkness cannot stay. And you are the light.
