Moving through Adversity and Cellular Memory with Jim Stavis

from Healing Powers Podcast · host Laura Powers

Diagnosed with juvenile type 1 diabetes at age 17, Jim Stavis was told to expect a shortened lifespan filled with medical difficulties along the way. While some would choose to spend their time asking, "Why me?" and focusing on the very real possibility that their life would end before it even began, Stavis chose to tackle his medical issues head on-- using positivity and hope as warriors in his fight against adversity.As Jim's life unfolded, he realized the adversity that had occurred early on had actually been a blessing, as it taught him how to overcome life's greatest challenges. It served as a motivator to get his life on a successful path, both personally and in business.As events would occur, such as a devastating business fire, more health challenges and ultimately a rare triple organ transplant, it was the mindset Jim employed that he would not only survive, but flourish that got him through. He ultimately realized in his journey that we are all tested eventually. Through his real-life challenges that he overcame and the wisdom gained, he hopes to be able to help others as they encounter their own adversity in life.Jim is the author of When Hope Is Your Only Option continues to lead as CEO of a successful southern California steel business Paragon Steel. He continues to speak frequently to business on the topics of hope, adversity, and positivity.
