Ep 866: How To Find The Beauty In Your Pain with Brandon Farbstein

Do you struggle with adversity?  Do you feel like you are out of control over your circumstances, and the events that happen in your life?  If so, you are not alone. The age of social media often causes us to play the comparison game which forces us into a dark place where we start to just pretend to be someone we are not in order to look better to the outside world.   Listen to the podcast HERE   In this episode I talk with Brandon Farbstein who at the age of two was diagnosed with a rare form of dwarfism.  For much of his childhood he felt out of place and lost until he found his place on a Tedx stage. He now hope to inspire people to see the world through a different lens.  He believes that adversity and the difficult things that happen in our life can bring us to amazing new things if we switch our mentality away from the negativity. Questions I asked: How did you rise above your adversity? What steps can you take today to move forward. How do you focus on what you can do rather than what you can't do. How do you surround yourself with the right people?   Topics Discussed: How to overcome adversity. How to move forward. Finding the good in everything. Surrounding yourself with people who lift you up.
