The Setback Slingshot
How my double mastectomy gave me the courage to go back to school and start my own company.
Description
My double mastectomy didn’t stop me.
It was the setback that launched me forward. You see, when we are stretched and low, there is tension. That tension, though uncomfortable, can be your strength. Like the pull-back of a slingshot, your setback can propel you forward if you allow that energy in, focus your joy, then let go.
You’ll land right where you need to be.
