Sometimes the most powerful journeys begin not with a step forward, but with a fall that forces you to rise differently. Amy Thurman's life changed in an instant after a traumatic brain injury left her unable to walk, talk, or see clearly. In Episode 240: From Trauma to Times Square, Amy shares her raw and remarkable story of healing and personal growth in midlife. But her story isn't just about recovery—it's about rediscovering purpose and becoming a guide for others.
Now a speaker, author, and founder of the Mirror Collective, Amy created the "Polish the Mirror" framework to help women rebuild their confidence, reconnect with joy, and reclaim who they are, beyond their roles, pasts, or setbacks.
This empowering podcast episode is for anyone navigating change, loss, or reinvention. Especially for midlife women who feel stuck, this conversation reminds them that they can turn pain into power and that joy can be their North Star.
We talk about:
How Amy redefined her identity after trauma
The mindset shift that changed her healing
Why "Polish the Mirror" speaks to every woman's inner spark
What joy and purpose look like in midlife
🎧 Tune in now to hear how Amy rose from trauma to inspire thousands and how you can reignite your spark from wherever you are.
