We discuss Jack’s injuries that led to him believing in the power of chiropractors, the benefits he has found in all aspects of his life, and what his advice is for listeners to make sure they are healing themselves properly.

    Finding Your Resilience, Accepting Change and The Power of Empathy with Maria Ross

    “When things get back to normal...” We hear this statement far too often these days, specifically in regards to the global COVID-19 pandemic. While this statement doesn’t seem harmful, it can support many people’s refusal to accept change. Instead of rejecting change, let’s accept and adapt to the changes, discover our resilience, and find the silver linings in life’s challenging situations. My guest today, Maria Ross, is a dear friend and mentor who is an entrepreneur, speaker, podcast host, and author. At age 35 Maria suffered a brain aneurysm that was a game-changer in her life. The dramatic effect the brain aneurysm had on her life taught her to accept change and redefine success, inspiring her book, Rebooting My Brain. Her recent book, The Empathy Edge, harnesses the value of empathy and compassion as a competitive advantage for businesses. Tune in today to learn how a brain aneurysm changed Maria’s life, how to actively accept change, and the competitive advantage of empathy in business and in all areas of life. Enjoy!
