Luke Doran: The 20 Week Scan That Made Him Quit His Job

In this episode of 360 Life Stories, Luke Doran talks about building a career that looked successful from the outside while feeling completely unfulfilled inside, the moment his wife's pregnancy scan changed everything, and the decision to walk away from that career to retrain as a personal trainer. We also get into the eleven hour surgery his newborn son went through, what Luke learned about control and resilience through that experience, and the coaching work he does now helping successful men move from burnout to balance.
