  1. Freedom From the Mind Deana Brown Mitchell 32:05

This episode of Scars to Stars is one of those conversations that reminds you people can completely rewrite their story.

Vishrant shares how he went from an “uncontrollable” kid and gang leader—armored, angry, and disconnected—to a life devoted to healing, purpose, and Love.

A pivotal encounter cracked his defenses, but it was a near-death experience at sea that opened his heart in a way he couldn’t ignore, leading him to walk away from everything and spend years searching for what mattered most: the heart.

Today, he teaches people how to step out of the exhausting “dream in your head,” find real presence, rebuild Relationships, and break free from addiction and victim-thinking.

The episode weaves through purpose, suicide prevention, kindness, and the power of conversation—ending with a simple message that lands like a lifeline: “I love you.”
