138: Mindset and The Power of Perspective with Carrington Smith

Thank you, Carrie, for being such a wonderful guest. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. You are an incredible woman, and I know your story will help others in their time of need.

Carrington believes wholeheartedly that with adversity comes opportunity and how an event is neither good nor bad, but how we view it makes it so.  Mindset is a muscle, and how the daily practice of shifting your mindset toward gratitude will help bring more positivity into your life and own your story. Carrington knows how toxic positivity makes traumatic experiences worse, and embracing the ugly situations that have happened in life can be freeing. She also shares  how spending too much time in a toxic work environment is detrimental to our happiness.
