from Colorado Business Podcast · host Colorado Business Podcast

Lisa Sinnott shares a story so raw and unbelievable, it will redefine your understanding of resilience. From surviving the streets of Oakland as a 6-year-old walking past pimps and drug dealers, to a miraculous spiritual awakening while high on ecstasy at a rave, her journey is one of profound pain transformed into a global purpose.In this powerful conversation, Lisa holds nothing back. We discuss the deep scars of sexual abuse and suicidal thoughts, the shocking results of a brain scan that revealed the true toll of her trauma, and how she learned to hear God's voice to navigate life-or-death situations. She also shares the tools she uses today—from her work as a resilience coach to the "Hug Campaign"—to heal not only herself but countless others in her community. This is a story you will not forget.Find our guest, Lisa Sinnott:► Website: https://lisa-sinnott-df8gmfd.gamma.site/► The Resilience Reveal Podcast: @MyResilienceRevealPodcast► The Be Encouraged Show: @BeEncouragedWithFrankAndLisa► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/innovatesuccessforyouIf this story moved you, please Like, Share, and Subscribe for more conversations that matter.► SUBSCRIBE to the COS Business Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@cosbusinesspodcastTIMESTAMP / CHAPTERS:00:00 - Intro: A Life of Unbelievable Trauma01:59 - Growing Up in Oakland's "Hood"02:40 - Surviving Sexual Abuse & Suicidal Thoughts05:57 - The Tools That Truly Saved Her Life10:26 - The Shocking Results of Her Brain Scan15:50 - The Rave: High on Ecstasy When God Spoke To Me19:51 - Uncovering Predators in the Church24:11 - The "Hug Campaign" & Absorbing People's Pain33:20 - The Power of Being a Social "Chameleon"44:14 - Why Human Hugs are Medically Necessary55:57 - Creating Connection with Karaoke01:00:20 - A Powerful Message to Her Younger SelfListen to the full COS Business Podcast episode:► Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1jSQ8OQSi0rprCcxTGx0KB?si=hpkxA-nkQOWSs6uBf7dYbg&nd=1&dlsi=6a5996bc19e449b4► Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/colorado-springs-business-podcast/id1492740546CONNECT WITH US:► Website: https://cosbizpodcast.com/► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cos.bizpodcast/► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/COSBusinessPodcast#Resilience #Trauma #Podcast #Faith #LisaSenate #InspirationalStory #MentalHealth #OvercomingAdversity
