Free to fly

This book was born from an act of courage: putting into words a life lived intensely — with all its falls, traumas, and rebirths. Gary Marcus Judge tells his story with honesty and without filters: from a difficult childhood in Bombay, marked by an absent and violent father, to a rebellious adolescence spent in desperate search of identity. From his experience in the Merchant Navy aboard the legendary QE2 — travelling the world but constantly fleeing from himself — to his arrival in Italy, where he built a business empire... yet still felt empty inside. Thus begins an eight-year journey into the depths of awareness: neuroscience, emotional intelligence, mindfulness, neuro-linguistic programming, and holistic practices — a total immersion to understand the invisible mechanisms that govern every human being. “Free to Fly” is much more than an autobiography; it is a life manual for anyone who wants to stop merely surviving and start truly thriving. It is living proof that our deepest traumas can become our greatest strengths.
