Have you had or do you have obstacles to overcome?

How and the heck can you get past this thing that seems like it has changed the direction of your life?

It seems like a futile situation because it’s out of your control.

Well guess what; the only thing we can control is our own alignment.

Controlling your own alignment starts as soon as you wake up. You have to be intentional about the type of day you want to have, and focus yourself into feeling good so that energy and momentum can carry you throughout the day.

On today’s episode of Waking Up Right with Ivory, I talk with an amazing man who took all of his obstacles and turned them into successes: Chad Coleman

Chad Coleman is an Actor, producer, and director who currently stars on Seth McFarlanes Fox Dramedy The Orville. Chad and his 5 siblings were raised in the foster system and adopted by an amazing family; but it wasn’t an easy journey for Chad. It was his resilient mindset and thirst to always become the best version of himself that has fueled him into the successful person he is today. So get ready to be inspired, and get inside the mind and heart of a successful, beautiful, brilliant man.
