How To Overcome & Thrive In The Face Of Loss and Trauma | Bozoma Saint John

There are so many things that happen in life against our will. Traumatic experiences that were 100% out of your control still leave you feeling like you’re somehow to blame. The weight of that guilt and shame can bury your hopes, your dreams, and any chance you have for a better life, if you allow it. Bozoma Saint John is not just a highly respected, award winning, Hall of Famer Marketing Executive that has been at the head of marketing for big companies like Netflix, Uber and Apple. “Badass” Boz is a survivor that has overcome loss and trauma at multiple stages of life. She decided to share her story and her lessons in her book, The Urgent Life. This is the episode you’ll want to take a seat for. Woman to woman, no one wants to experience not even one of her losses, and yet she shares how she experienced, processed, and moved through it each time to become the most powerful version of herself standing, and this is apart from the most insanely successful career she’s had so far.
