From Burnout to Breakthrough: Guy Shahar on Healing, Autism Awareness, and the Power of Heartful Living
Description
When chronic illness forced Guy Shahar to stop and reevaluate his life, it led to an unexpected awakening that changed everything. Once housebound from total health burnout, Guy began writing his first book, Transforming Autism—a heartfelt account of his family’s journey raising an autistic son and discovering new ways to nurture his well-being. That story became the catalyst for his TED Talk, “The Beautiful Reality of Autism,” which has inspired more than a third of a million viewers worldwide.
After learning that he, too, is autistic, Guy embraced his difference as a strength and went on to found The Transforming Autism Project, a UK-based charity helping parents of autistic children access guidance and support. Through Heartful Healing, his practice rooted in The Emotion Code, The Body Code, and The Belief Code, he now helps others achieve balance, clarity, and emotional freedom.
In this inspiring conversation, Guy shares how burnout became a breakthrough, why self-understanding is the foundation of transformation, and how heart-based healing can help anyone rediscover their purpose.
