Listen "Turning Tragedy into Triumph"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode, we learn the story of Brett Horn. Brett lost his 2-year-old son Charlie when he was crushed by a dresser that tipped over and fell on him. Brett turned his grief into something positive. He has successfully advocated for legislation requiring furniture to meet tip-over standards. He was also instrumental in creating Charlie's House, a full-scale demonstration safety house. Brett did not want other parents to experience his loss from tip-over accidents. This a great episode of overcoming grief and being persistent to reach your goals. Key Takeaways - Persistence is the necessary ingredient in getting things done. - We all have different strengths and weaknesses. In arriving at a solution, draw from your and others' strengths. - Don't let the pursuit of perfection get in the way of progress. - With regard to the loss of a child, time does not heal all wounds. Time provides an opportunity to deal with those wounds. - In coping with loss, find your way to deal with the loss, not how others think you should deal with the loss. - In overcoming adversity, take it one day at a time. Set goals. This episode was made possible by: Hand Arendall Harrison Sale Buy Rod's Book "Get Back Up" >>> Buy Here Learn more about & contact Rod Cate:Rod Cate Website Twitter Facebook LinkedIn
