How To Use Grace As A Tool To Overcome Obstacles with Madeleine West

What is the superpower of grace and how can it help us as humans to overcome enormous tragedy?Madeleine West has seen the best and the worst of the human experience. She is an actor, becoming a household face in the iconic Australian shows Neighbours and Underbelly, a mother of 6, author of the book Six Under Eight and a staunch environmentalist. In 2002 Madeleine suffered terrible injuries when she was hit by a bus and whilst unconscious she was robbed. In 2022, Madeleine revealed that she was a child sexual abuse survivor and she sought justice against Peter White, her childhood neighbour who had abused her for 5 years. In making public her experience, 6 other victims came forward and Peter White was imprisoned for his crimes. How does someone learn how to keep getting up after being knocked down? What is in the human mind that enables one person to dust themselves off and rise with grace, and someone else to fall into a pit of darkness? In this episode Maddy and I talk about serious injuries, child sexual abuse, being in command of your own mind, the discipline of grace and what part of the brain determines us as being  human.Support the showFollow Mel Bampton for upcoming opportunities to support you to become a Master of Change:Instagram: @melbampton_Leave a review on Apple Podcast: 'Mel Bampton Presents...How Human'Subscribe to the website & get Mel's free 'Slaying Bad Habits Ebook'Catch some of Mel's presentations: The Uncensored Truth About OvariesMessage From The Bottle: Stories Of Sobriety
