Refusing to Quit - Episode #314 with TV Personality Barbara Majeski
Barbara Majeski is no stranger to the spotlight. As a popular television personality, she has been featured on the TODAY show, Good Day NY, and New York Live. She has found success in her career and family, raising three children while pursuing her dreams. But her road to happiness has been challenging. In 2016, Majeski found herself somewhere she never thought she would be: divorced and diagnosed with late-stage cancer. Going through chemotherapy almost killed her, but she turned inward, focusing on her reason for moving forward, which was to help ensure her brother, who has special needs, was never institutionalized. "I couldn't get my wits about me, and I realized that all the things I was most proud of were things I wanted to quit," she says. "But I didn't quit because I knew I couldn't take care of Steven if I did. I had to do these things in the name of him." So Majeski persevered, beating cancer and launching a television career in her 40s after spending decades dreaming about it. And now, she is taking what she learned to help others. She has created courses to help women and men overcome doubt and frustration to live their best lives, focusing on mindset strategies and teaching others how to support their dreams. This year Majeski has concentrated on hosting live events and challenges that help you optimize your health, wealth, and happiness.
