Wendy, on the Kuinua Podcast, has had an awesome setback in terms of being laid off from her roles multiple times. 

At this point, Wendy could have given up, but she didn’t. Instead, Wendy used the adversity as a powerful energy to drive herself forward. What is awesome about what Wendy does now is that she has not only set up a coaching business but she helps people recognise their talents and potential.

In the last blog we discussed transferable skills and this is a prime example of this. Wendy has used her years of corporate experience and leadership coaching and opened up the opportunities she has by scaling her business globally. (Check out the last blog on how to work out your won transferable skills)

We have had quite a few guests on the podcast who have faced adversity and one thing that always strikes me with them is that they use the adversity to power through. I will always remember talking with Jessica Revelels and hearing how, with no money and nowhere to live she went to a shelter and used the local coffee shops for internet until she could build a business for herself and her son and get her life together,

It’s stories like this that always surprise me because we all think it might be easier to give up or to become a victim. Inside us all there is a strength we never knew before and when we hit adversity it jumps out and pushed us on until we can jumpstart our life and get back on track.

The will to survive is greater than any other human emotion.
