There are so many things that happen in life against our will. Traumatic experiences that were 100% out of your control still leave you feeling like you’re somehow to blame.The weight of that guilt and shame can bury your hopes, your dreams, and any chance you have for a better life, if you allow it.
Bozoma Saint John is not just a highly respected, award winning, Hall of Famer Marketing Executive that has been at the head of marketing for big companies like Netflix, Uber and Apple. “Badass” Boz is a survivor that has overcome loss and trauma at multiple stages of life. She decided to share her story and her lessons in her book, The Urgent Life.
This is the episode you’ll want to take a seat for. Woman to woman, no one wants to experience not even one of her losses, and yet she shares how she experienced, processed, and moved through it each time to become the most powerful version of herself standing, and this is apart from the most insanely successful career she’s had so far.
Become the most powerful person you know
Stop making yourself the victim. It is not your fault
You have the power to choose your own destiny

QUOTES:
“I’ve been at the bottom. I’ve been at the place where it is so dark that I didn’t want to see light again.”
“I'm the most powerful person I know because I’ve been there and I’ve been able to survive it.”
“The weight of that guilt will lay you down and it will bury you.”
“It’s not that you were too busy. You made a choice! You decided that thing was more important.”
“If I’m in a situation, work or otherwise, that is not serving me, I have to make the choice to save myself. I love myself more than I love the situation of toxicity.”
“You are not stuck. You do not have to do anything. When you say that you are giving the power away You have a choice!
“I had to sacrifice my marriage in order to save myself and to make me the better person that I knew was capable of walking this planet.”
