Turning Tragedy into Triumph with Jessi Shuraleff

Episode S4E4: Show Notes.

 Today’s guest shares the story of a woman who has triumphed, overcome adversity, and taken a fork in the road moment to turn tragedy into a platform for helping others. This leader, podcaster and mom is here to tell us about her work empowering individuals and brands to step into their light, reclaim their voice, and drive greater impact. Join us today to hear the story of how a conversation with her husband made her realize she had lost her voice, how she felt in that moment, and how it led to her finally addressing everything she had been avoiding.

Jessi tells us about some of the real and raw stories guests have shared on her podcast, This is My Truth, and tells us why hearing them has been so powerful for us, before sharing her advice to other moms who want to slow down: get outside in nature!

“Most likely, all of us have had those moments where you’re asking, why is this happening to me? Why me? I’ve got to be the only one who’s experiencing that. It’s true that your experiences are uniquely your own, but so many times there’s a common thread that we can all relate to.” — Jessi Shuraleff [0:06:03]
