Most people and organizations don’t have a performance problem. They have a Mental Kidnapping problem—and they don’t know it yet. Michael Anthony does. Michael Anthony, M.Div, (born Michael Anthony Paolicelli) is the author of “How to Stop Kidnapping Yourself: Break Free from Anxiety, Overthinking, Negative Thoughts & Self-Sabotage” (2026, Limitless Press), an award-winning speaker, mindset expert, and entrepreneur whose work sits at the intersection of neuroscience and personal application. He helps people and organizations escape what he calls “Mental Kidnapping”—the self-sabotaging beliefs and patterns that stall performance, drain energy, and limit results. Mike doesn’t teach from theory, but from a life that demanded every tool he now helps others master. Having escaped three kidnapping attempts as a child and seven brushes with death as an adult, Mike learned at the deepest level how the mind either breaks or battles through under extreme pressure—and built a methodology to rewire it. He uses what shaped him to help organizations and people transform their lives and develop unstoppable momentum. His applied research earned him recognition as a Master Neuroplastician® (M.npn) by The Neuroplasticity Practitioner Network. He and his work have been featured in The New York Times, Fox News, CNN, CBN, and numerous podcasts. Organizations including Primerica, Iron Sharpens Iron, Thomas Nelson, Conklin Roofing, and Moody Bible Institute bring Michael in when they need their people to function at a higher level—with greater focus, efficiency, and motivation. Not just for a season, but for good. His experience in corporate, nonprofit, and pastoral leadership gives him unique, behind-the-scenes insights he shares to help others reach their potential. His books, coaching, and speaking bring his full methodology to anyone who wants to break free, stay free, and live the life they’re truly meant to live.
