You Can't Change Your Past, But You Can Rewrite Its Meaning
Manage episode 497153956 series 3537866
Ever felt like your past defined you? That the broken pieces couldn't be put back together? That's exactly where I found myself after my brother's death left a blanket of grief over every Christmas, after a divorce that unraveled 21 years of trying, after losing a 24-year career, and after my mother's sudden passing left me reeling.
Then came that February day – a car accident, a bridge, and a plunge into icy water that should have ended everything. Instead, it whispered a truth I'd forgotten: my story wasn't over. That near-death experience became the quiet awakening that changed everything.
For decades, I'd been that little girl from Minnesota who learned to shrink herself to survive, who gave everything to her daughters while keeping nothing for herself. I carried the heavy, invisible belief that I wasn't worthy – until life cracked me open and forced me to rebuild. At 58, I launched a coaching business, became a bestselling author, started this podcast, found a relationship where I feel truly seen, and even got my dog Dax who shows me what unconditional love really means.
This transformation taught me something powerful that I want to share with you: you may not get to rewrite what happened to you, but you absolutely get to rewrite the meaning you give it. You are not broken. You are not too much. You are in the becoming. This season of Unleash Your Inner Radiance is for anyone ready to rewrite their story, one choice at a time.
