Miracle Pivots: How to Think Bigger When Bad Things Happen w/ Curtis Shewell | Ep 62
Manage episode 422218164 series 3561387
There are two ways tragedy can affect our lives. It can turn us into victims who make ourselves smaller in the face of adversity. Alternatively, it can change the trajectory of our lives giving us an opportunity to make a bigger impact on others.
The latter is the path Curtis Shewell took. His daughter’s cancer diagnosis completely upended his life and led him into real estate, which he considers his miracle job. Instead of letting the hardships define him, he’s been able to get good at adversity and use it to think differently.
What was it like navigating his daughter’s illness and what mindset kept him strong during that time? How did real estate find him? How does he use the empathy he’s gained to make a difference in the lives of thousands?
In this episode, the coach, speaker, subject of an Amazon Prime documentary, and co-author of Empathetic Leadership talks about his story and his unique take on adversity.
If you start learning how to overcome adversity, you get very good at it, when you become good at it, it doesn’t stick to you. -Curtis Shewell
