From Losing Her Sight to Finding Her Power: Grit, Gratitude & Growth with Laura Bratton

At age nine, Laura Bratton was diagnosed with an eye disease and told she would become blind. By the time she finished high school, she had almost no usable vision and was deep in grief, anxiety and depression. Today, Laura is a keynote speaker, author of Harnessing Courage: Overcoming Adversity with Grit & Gratitude, and founder of Ubi Global, where she helps people navigate change with courage, grit and genuine gratitude.In this conversation, we explore what it actually looks like to live with grief, how to support someone who’s struggling, and how to execute on your goals when perfectionism, fear and overthinking keep getting in the way. We also talk about gym anxiety, self‑compassion, trusting your intuition in a noisy world, and why simple daily movement can transform your mental health.Listen if you want to learn:🔸 How to permit yourself to grieve without feeling “weak”.🔸 The difference between moving on and moving forward after loss.🔸 A practical definition of grit you can apply today.🔸 A simple way to practise gratitude without a journal.🔸 How to handle the anxiety of walking into the gym for the first time.🔸 Why “you are enough” is a starting point, not a slogan.Connect with Laura Bratton: Website: https://www.laurabratton.com Email: [email protected] Book – Harnessing Courage: Overcoming Adversity with Grit & Gratitude: https://www.laurabratton.com/book🎧 Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube or wherever you listen to your podcasts.  Support the showWant to put what you just heard into practice?
