Brian Bogert - Flipping The Lid Unshakeable Belief When Life Breaks You w/ Monica Connolly (E147)
Life can throw challenges at us that seem insurmountable, yet it’s often through these moments that we discover our greatest strength. In this episode, Monica Connolly shares her incredible journey of resilience, beginning with surviving a hypoxic brain injury as a newborn. She also reflects on her childhood and how unrealistic expectations from those around her set her on a path of self-sabotage.
As the conversation unfolds, Monica opens up about breaking free from people’s expectations and finding acceptance. Moreover, she reflects on how losing her son and caring for her husband after his brain injury shaped her life and the lessons she learned about commitment.
Monica also discusses her personal growth journey, including her weight loss experience and the goals she hopes to achieve through her coaching, writing, and podcasting.
