In this episode Jacynta shares 6 things she's learned about growth as a survivor and leader. She also announces the new name of the podcast...from "The Jacynta Brewton Podcast" to "The Survivors & Leaders Podcast". EPISODE TAKEAWAYS: 1. Identity - You are not the sum total of what you no longer have or what you no longer can do. 2. Process - Growth is a process, don't rush it. Reframe your hard times as opportunities to grow. 3. Invisible - Just like pain, not all growth can be seen; be content in your own growth progress even if no one else notices. 4. Absence - Growth in your business, family, organization, etc. should continue to happen even when you're gone. 5. Live - Nothing dead can grow; growth is an indication that you are alive - now live! 6. Flexibility - Growth is as flexible as palm trees during a hurricane, they bend but don't break. jacyntabrewton.com @jacyntabrewton
