Free Will Or Fate? The Answer Is Yes- with Richard Ashworth | EP 471
Description
Before the microphones were turned on, Richard Ashworth asked Brian for his birth information. What followed was an unexpected and deeply personal moment—Richard identified a pivotal event at age seven that reshaped Brian’s view of life.
He was right.
In this episode of Grief 2 Growth, Brian and Richard explore how grief, destiny, and choice intersect—and how ancient systems like Bazi can help us understand the moments that quietly define us.
This is a conversation about:
- Childhood loss and lifelong impact
- Fate vs free will
- Healing heartbreak without bypassing pain
- Why grief is not something to “fix,” but something to listen to

You've been listening. You're doing the work. But there's still this feeling that you're circling the same place.
Maybe you've thought about working with me one-on-one. Maybe something's held you back.
I get that. And I want you to know there's still a place for you.
All of it, pay what you want. You decide what it's worth. Nobody gets turned away because of money.
