Joining us is Best-Selling Author & Founder of Thought Leader Academy, Sara Connell. She helps coaches, writers, and entrepreneurs become successful published authors and TedX in-demand speakers. She’s not just here to share her story but she wants to share yours too. You are unique and you are not an imposter, there are beliefs that are holding you back that are not yours to carry anymore. 

 

In this episode, we discuss:

• External validation comes with a loud inner critic
• Creativity is a powerful force that we don’t realize
• Sarah’s history of trauma in her life
• The work Sarah did to heal from her eating disorder and sexual trauma
• Identifying our repressed memories of childhood sexual trauma
• Sarah’s process of meditation ‘Meditate or Medicate’
• The Thought Leader Academy: the purpose and what to expect
• The fear of passing down generational trauma
• Having fun is underrated

About Sara Connell

Ata young age her dream of being a writer was shut down when a teacher told her she wasn’t good enough. Fast forward to 17 years ago when a book saved her life. Sara in between flights after a long day of traveling, in the airport book store, picks up a book that she absolutely finds herself in. Reads it endlessly & tirelessly, wakes up and makes a vow to herself. She left the abusive job, sought the help she needed to regain physically and emotionally.
