How many times have you been at the bottom of the barrel and overwhelmed by all the stuff life was throwing at you, only to hear someone comfort you with, “its okay, everything happens for a reason”? 

 

No, everything doesn’t always happen for a greater reason or purpose, there isn’t always a grand scheme, sometimes things just happen and we have to learn how to deal. 

 

In this episode, I’ll share with you one of the biggest lessons I’ve ever learned through one of the biggest tragedies of my life. 

 

This episode will teach you how to take control and not wait around to to figure out the reason behind a negative situation. You’ll learn strategies you can implement today, to reframe your mind and look for the lesson so you can grow from every difficult situation. 

 

You will never look at negative situation the same way! 

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Stop reacting to life and create the life you want
  • There is no greater reason behind a difficult situation – everything is cause and effect
  • Learn to take control of your reactions allow life to happen for you, not at you
  • Reframe your mind to look for a lesson in each negative situation
