Given the vast amounts of fear & uncertainty surrounding the current job market I thought I’d give you a dose of inspiration, motivation, and dare I say, even a little gratitude to remind us all of the resilience and adaptability of the human race. On the heels of my recent conversation with Brad Stulberg who wrote the book Master of Change which provides practical ways to adapt and develop resiliency in the face of change, as well as my recent conversation with disability advocate Taylor Lewis, this upcoming series is sure to give you a new appreciation for the growth that arises from adversity.

For the next five weeks I’ll be releasing some of my favorite interviews with everyday people overcoming insurmountable obstacles to and achieve extraordinary things. In this top 5 series, you will hear from a wide range of guests who have faced extreme adversity and made it through to the other side to tell the tale.

Without further adieu, here is the fourth part of this five interview series with Humberto Gurmilan who is an Emmy award-winning producer, author, speaker, podcaster, and all-around inspiring guy. He is also the founder of the Gurmilan Foundation which empowers individuals with disabilities in challenged communities. If you are frustrated with your current circumstances, this conversation will help you flip your situation with a dose of gratitude and mobilize you to change what’s in your control.
