#62 - Marcus Aurelius Anderson | The Gift of Adversity: Overcoming Paralysis and Pain to Find Purpose

Marcus Aurelius Anderson is an author, TEDx speaker, Keynote Speaker and executive Mindset Coach.

While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army, Marcus suffered a severe spinal injury that left him paralyzed. After dying on the operating table twice, the surgeons saved his life, but told him he'd never walk again.

Having no other option, Marcus started doing some brutally honest soul searching, looking for the lesson to be learned from his injury. Once he started seeing his Adversity as a gift instead of a curse, something miraculous began to happen...

Marcus now speaks, writes, inspires and teaches others to overcome their own Adversity and actualize their personal definition of success.

His TEDx talk “The Gift of Adversity” tells of how we can use our Adversity to make us into better leaders, citizens and human beings.

His book “The Gift of Adversity: Overcoming Paralysis and Pain to Find Purpose” is available on Amazon and Kindle.
