Anti-fragility with Brain Tumor Survivor Jodi Orgil Brown
Anti Fragile is a term that was coined in 2012 by Nassim Taleb. Things that are antifragile are things that gain from disorder. And when we learn how to be antifragile, we have the capability to thrive, not despite but because of stressors and volatility that we experience.
My guest today is the epitome of antifragility. In May 2009 Jodi was diagnosed with a brain tumor, located between her right auditory canal and her brainstem. Jodi underwent surgery where 80 percent of the tumor was removed, but due to the proximity to her brainstem, the operation was not without complications. Jodi's nerves were damaged, leading to facial paralysis, hearing loss, and pneumocephalus.
Listen in as Jodi discusses what she has learned about GROWTH and being antifragile in the 12 years since her diagnosis.
