Episode Synopsis
This episode of When I Stop Fighting – The Podcast introduces Pauline Victoria, an inspirational leader and founder of One Leg Up Productions, who was born without arms and legs. Pauline shares her journey of overcoming physical and societal limitations, attributing her resilience and success to the foundation of faith, love, and "tough love" her parents provided. From an early age, she was encouraged to face challenges independently, fostering a mindset that embraced frustration and uncertainty as opportunities for growth. Her personal anecdotes—such as learning to swim without arms and legs—underscore her belief that courage is not the absence of fear but the willingness to act despite it, driven by a deep desire to belong and participate fully in life.Pauline emphasizes the importance of personal power, rooted in self-belief and self-worth, which she developed by repeatedly choosing action over comfort. She highlights how small victories, like finding creative ways to achieve everyday tasks, slowly build confidence and reinforce one’s sense of capability. The discussion explores the idea that true freedom comes from exercising choice, regardless of external circumstances. Pauline illustrates that while society may try to define or limit individuals, it is ultimately up to each person to decide how much power they give to outside opinions or obstacles.A key theme in the conversation is the practice of presence and faith. Pauline and Daryl discuss the value of living in the moment and being receptive to the messages and opportunities life presents. They reflect on the role of faith—both in oneself and in a higher power—in navigating discomfort and uncertainty. Pauline shares how her spiritual foundation, encapsulated by her mother’s words "thy will be done," continues to guide her actions and decisions, motivating her to pursue a purpose larger than personal comfort.The episode concludes with Pauline describing her current work, including masterminds and coaching programs that empower thought leaders to step into their full potential. She advocates for continual growth, humility, and openness to learning, emphasizing that everyone has the potential to transform their story into a source of strength and inspiration for others. Pauline’s message is a powerful reminder that confidence and fulfillment arise from embracing challenges, taking action, and remaining true to one’s vision and values.Find Pauline here:www.OneLegUpProductions.comPodcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1H9ZOfXi5HFy1HofNYtnHzFB Group: https://ww.facebook.com/groups/madeformoreimpactandincomeFB Page: https://www.facebook.com/onelegupproductionsllcIG: @onelegupproductionsYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1LexyRvhmrDQWowhbdjiVQ?view_as=subscriber
