How are you handling the challenges you face in life? We all have them, and while some people seem to be “lucky” in life, the truth is, we all have choices to make every moment of every day. Those choices either hold us back or propel us forward.

Today we’re talking with Sicilian singer/songwriter, Vina Rose, about how you can turn challenges into opportunities, whether we’re talking about your personal or professional life, during coronavirus and beyond.

 

Leaving a popular TV show career behind, along with her home, friends and family, to move to London was a difficult decision for Vina. But it was one she knew she needed to make in order to grow and thrive as an artist, and person. And it paid off as she released “Breathe Again”, her debut single in 2019 and is now about to release her EP “Crossroads” on the 24th April 2020.

This was not luck. This was choice. Vina Rose made some very difficult decisions along the way, worked hard, was consistent, kept her eye on her goal, and pushed herself out of her comfort zone in order to get to this point. And that’s what she’s still doing now amidst the coronavirus lock down we’re all facing.

Opportunities don’t always spring up with a big sign on them that scream, “Grab hold of me, I promise it will be worth it!” In fact, most opportunities don’t look or feel fabulous in the moment. We experience them as full on challenges. Sometimes the challenge seems so great, we can’t imagine how we’ll get through it, never mind turn it into something positive. Vina Rose is going to share with us her secret to turning challenge into opportunity – a crucial life skill, in my opinion, and one that sets the “lucky” apart from the “unlucky”.
