Confidence Classic: Bounce Back, Bet on Yourself, and Write Your Own Story with Nina Sossamon-Pogue

from Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan · host Heather Monahan | YAP Media

What if your worst moment isn’t the end, but the beginning of your COMEBACK story? In this episode, I sit down with former elite gymnast, Emmy-winning broadcaster, and bestselling author Nina Sossamon-Pogue to talk about how to RISE when life hits HARD. We dive into resilience, emotional recovery, and the tools you need to move from hopelessness to HOPE. Nina opens up about losing everything, starting over, and what it really takes to write your next chapter with confidence. She breaks down her concept of “Chapter Six Thinking” to help you see tough moments as just ONE page in your life’s story. I also share about getting FIRED, posting online to ask for help, and the realization I had at a CEO’s mansion that made me finally BET ON MYSELF. In This Episode, You Will Learn Why your lowest moment is NOT your final chapter. The mindset that helped me ask for HELP. Tools to STOP spiraling and REWRITE your story. How to turn trauma into resilience and come back STRONGER. What made me BET ON MYSELF.
