7: My Mom on Bouncing Forward From Adversity

In this episode of Bouncing Forward, I interview one of the most important people in my life: My mom. Without her, I wouldn’t be where I am today. That’s why I wanted to bring her onto the podcast, for her to share her best insight into bouncing forward. We specifically chat about my upbringing and how it shaped the work ethic I have today, how we both rely on positive thinking and visualization to get through hard times, and why it’s so important to allow people to take care of you when you need it most.
