Send us Fan MailListen to our new episode that tells Dan's resilience story.At 28, Dan MacQueen was leading a healthy, active life - until suddenly he wasn't. Dan has survived two emergency brain surgeries, weeks in a coma, and months in a rehab hospital. What he found out along the way might surprise you: there is nothing like a brain injury to refocus the mind. Driven by a positive mindset, Dan battled through excruciating rehab exercises to rebuild his life and return to a job he loved. How does Dan use constructive optimism to navigate through life? What are the ways he learned to approach setbacks? As Dan says "It's not that I don't care what you think about me, It's just that I care a little more what I think about myself". If it comes across as arrogant, it's just the way I communicate with myself to help me rebuild. Chop wood, carry water (work).
