When I was pronounced dead, I knew it, not because they said it, but because all of those emotions were gone. I only felt peace, I had a deeper understanding and I was so hyper aware and it was like that's me, but I'm me and I'm just an energy, I'm just a presence.    - Elayna Fernandez

Have you experienced the transformative power of pain?

Today’s episode is extra special…  The extraordinary experience that my guest, Elayna Fernandez shares, from her upbringing in the slums of the Dominican Republic, to being kidnapped and assaulted, to literally dying in a terrible accident, to her incredible rise to the top as a world-renowned speaker, coach, and entrepreneur, are insanely inspiring.

As a 4x TEDx Speaker, TEDx Organizer, and Certified Speaker Coach, Elayna is a bestselling author, international keynote speaker, and award-winning storyteller who was named one of the 125 Top Impactful Leaders to Know worldwide by SUCCESS Magazine and has been sponsored by over 500 brands. 

I personally stumbled upon Elayna, who also happens to be vegan, when I was seeking support to take my own professional speaking career to the next level, and I hired her as a coach, which was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

In this episode, Elayna guides us through the philosophy of harnessing pain as a catalyst for growth, sharing her own remarkable journey to highlight how adversity can lead to profound positivity.

In a heartfelt narrative, we explore the significance of compassion, the alchemy of transforming pain into possibility, and the importance of setting bold visions for a future filled with love and abundance.

Elayna's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, from her early struggles to her current influence as a global thought leader.

Wrapping up this inspiring conversation, we reflect on how personal tragedies can redefine our sense of self-worth and purpose. Through the creation of the Positive Mom brand and the values Elayna strives to impart to my children, she underscores the importance of embracing our painful experiences to forge a path of growth for ourselves and for future generations.
