Today we’d like to introduce you to Andrew Broz.
Andrew, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
As a child, I worked as an actor and model in a small town in Pennsylvania. By age 16, I had moved to NYC and was working as an agent at the world-famous Ford Model Agency. I was launching the careers of and/or managing careers of talent including Paris Hilton, Lizzy Jagger, Christie Brinkley, and many others. At age 25, I had already traveled to over 30 countries and I relocated to Los Angeles to act as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Elite Model Management. During these years, I also owned my own firm, Andrew Broz & Associates, Inc., and we served as casting directors and consultants to clients such as Playboy, Vogue, Verizon, Target, Christian Dior, Lancome, Nicole Miller, Versace, and dozens of others.
I was living the “dream” life filled with money, travel, and glamour – yet, was inexplicably unhappy. There were a few major earthquakes in my life that included physical dis-ease: losing my home and assets, experiencing a traumatic divorce in a relationship, and finally, experiencing a complete loss of identity. I was spiritually starved, emotionally imbalanced, and was experiencing true dis-ease: I simply could not live like that anymore.
I made the leap to begin a course of study: I wanted to understand myself, my emotions, and psyche. Through this process, I have learned how to practice many skills that have helped me, which were not limited to just the traditional western techniques. I believe in taking a balanced and holistic approach to any human being, including physical, mental, and spiritual aspects.
I am thrilled that I am now able to share my life experience, education, and training with others: to help them guide their journey.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
In the beginning, everything was “easy”. I wasn’t afraid of anything. When my addiction heightened, and I started to transition my life, the initial struggles of addiction were difficult. Also, breaking away from the comforts and familiar feeling of the modeling and fashion industries was a challenging move to make at times. I suppose that, if you allow it to be, anything foreign can be a bit frightening.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Life Landscaping, Inc. story. Tell us more about the business.
My company, Life Landscaping, specialized in many aspects of treatment. We offer a variety of services including placing individuals into a detox and/or rehab program, providing interventions, offering sober companionship and sober transport, sober coaching/recovery coaching, and matching you up with the right therapist(s). We can provide your rehab experience in-home or at a facility. Basically, we navigate very confusing waters (including insurance matters, too) for someone and make their experience smooth and seamless – and get the individual to where they aspire to be. We help a person save their own life.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I don’t believe in luck. I believe everyone is presented with great opportunities – unfortunately, our eyes and hearts are not always open to them.
