Steve Barendregt - Rising Above
Manage episode 358561690 series 3371867
Steve Barendregt faced unfortunate life challenges from an early age, yet a remarkably positive mindset allowed him to overcome the odds and ultimately forgive, gathering significant wisdom and allies along the way. We are thrilled to hear fascinating anecdotes that span such an interesting life, from using humour and cleverness to cope through a deprived and abusive childhood to becoming the caring community leader and entrepreneur he is today. Steve credits an unwavering belief in himself for fuelling a “success instinct” that motivated him even through the most difficult times, along with lessons about strategic planning, win-win thinking, and the importance of vulnerability and kindness. We are left thinking about the potential to turn challenges into opportunities, and reminded to be grateful for the angels in our lives.
Luckily, there’s plenty more to dig into in Steve’s new memoir, “Forgiveness is Freedom: How I Overcame Life Challenges to Thrive and Succeed and How You Can Too!”. Find it Here on Amazon!
