John Lawyer is a Universalist, Spiritual Guide and Seeker who served in the U.S. Army in Kuwait, Bagdad, and Kandahar as a counterintelligence special agent and asymmetric warfare specialist responsible for coordinating various operations in Afghanistan for six years.

John has gone from receiving a bronze star for counterterrorism operations to walking through a swamp of sadness to an amazing path of spiritual healing and self-awareness. He is now a guide for Kishar, a non-profit online spiritual community, and offers individual spiritual and coaching services as part of the Kishar Spiritual Community.

John shares his personal transformation from transitioning from a military life and the culture of war to civilian life, along with all of the difficulties that go along with it. He describes what he calls “the lost youth aspect of war as well as the darkness that sometimes exists in the western industrial military complex.”

Through his own personal journey of transformation, he discovered that we are all connected, and that we should have better conversations to become more united even if we disagree. Especially when we disagree. He also firmly believes that if we have open minds and be kind to each other, our hearts will open as well, and the world would become a better place.
