Part of a notorious crime family in New Jersey, he spent a decade running credit card scams, cocaine heists, and violent operations that landed most of his associates in federal prison.

Growing up with a misogynistic father and a sociopathic brother who became a mob strong-arm and once held a .45 to his head, Michael's path seemed predetermined. But after surviving multiple attempts on his life and hitting rock bottom, one unexpected discovery changed everything. The simple daily practice he stumbled upon in a small bookstore would transform him from a violent criminal into a force for healing. 00:00 From Mobster to Reiki Master: Meet Michael Swerdloff 03:00 Wolves at Home: Growing Up with a Violent Brother 06:19 The Good Kid Who Turned Dark 10:33 Gun to My Head: My Brother's Warning 11:14 "I Was Smarter Than All of Them": Manipulating the Mob 19:03 The $25K Cocaine Heist Gone Wrong 20:20 Credit Card Scams: Why the Secret Service Got Involved 21:11 Rock Bottom: Planning Murder-Suicide 23:03 "I Never Want Anyone to Control Me Again" 25:18 Skeptic's Guide to Reiki: Live Demonstration 29:29 "Jaded People Make the Best Friends" 30:46 Forgiving an Unforgivable Brother 33:38 Mission: Transform Masculinity 34:10 Simple Daily Practice That Changes Lives 34:49 The Book: Raised by Wolves, Possibly Monsters Featured in his new book 'Raised by Wolves, Possibly Monsters,' Michael's story shows that no matter how dark your past, change is always possible. 📚 Featured Book: 'Raised by Wolves, Possibly Monsters ' - https://www.michaelswerdloff.com/raised-by-wolves-possibly-monsters-healthy-masculinity/ 📲 Connect with Michael Swerdloff: https://www.michaelswerdloff.com/ ⭐️ Subscribe for More Transformational Stories: www.youtube.com/@UCsRyuQWlLAYzM4IyJlF2IWQ #MobStories #TrueCrime #ExMobster #MafiaStories #OrganizedCrime #CriminalReform #Redemption #SecondChances #PersonalTransformation #LifeChanging #SpiritualJourney #MeditationTransformation #InnerHealing #MindsetShift #TransformationStory #Reiki #ReikiHealing #EnergyHealing #Meditation #HolisticHealing #AlternativeHealing #WellnessJourney #MentalHealthJourney #TraumaHealing #PTSD #Recovery #SobrietyJourney #AddictionRecovery #MentalHealthAwareness #MensHealth #MasculinityDiscussion #ToxicMasculinity #MensWellness #MensWork #MensHealing #MensGroups #LifeCoach #Counselor #Therapist #HealingPractitioner #CommunityLeader #Motivational #PersonalDevelopment #RaisedByWolves #NewBook #AuthorInterview #BookRelease #MustRead #TrueCrimeBooks #MemoirBooks #PodcastInterview #PodcastGuest #NewPodcast #PodcastEpisode #Storytelling #RealStories #Inspiration #MustListen #PowerfulStory #Inspirational #LifeLessons #NeverTooLate #ChangeIsPossible #HumanPotential…
