Dean Attwell — Co-Founder of Oakland International — shares his personal journey from successful but depressed business leader to renewed purpose through therapy. Despite building a company with 1,400 employees, he experienced deep depression and loneliness at the top. After trying physical challenges like climbing Kilimanjaro and polar expeditions without lasting relief, he discovered Inlibrium’s program through Hardi’s LinkedIn post about lonely leadership. Through a six-month intensive program with Inlibrium’s team and continuous support, he learned to face his demons, unlock suppressed emotions, and transform his leadership style. The interdisciplinary approach helped him move from being preoccupied with business to focusing on personal happiness, relationships, and becoming a leader who supports others.
