Manage episode 473435816 series 3550516
What happens when you combine a passion for travel, a gift for storytelling, and a heart for helping others overcome their deepest struggles? You get Lori Bruton, our fascinating guest who shares her remarkable journey from trauma to transformation.
Lori opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped her path as an author, travel writer, speaker, and breakthrough coach. Her story begins with childhood road trips that sparked her love for exploration and continues through personal challenges that nearly broke her spirit. With raw honesty, she reveals how these experiences led her to develop a unique coaching approach that addresses trauma stored at the cellular level—going beyond conventional mindset techniques she describes as merely "spray paint on rust."
Her adventures have taken her swimming with dolphins and flying on private jets to the Bahamas, despite once being so terrified of flying she avoided planes for twenty years. Through essential oils, determination, and courage, she conquered those fears and now helps others break through their own limitations. Particularly poignant is her discussion about traveling with mobility challenges—a topic many avoid but one that affects countless wanderers worldwide.
For aspiring writers, Lori offers practical insights into breaking into freelance travel writing, crafting case studies (customer success stories), and using personal newsletters to connect authentically with readers. Her journey from writing personalized poems for her son's teachers to publishing books with forewords by renowned motivational speaker Les Brown demonstrates how passion and perseverance can transform dreams into reality.
