In life I’ve had a lot of life changing events that shaped my way of thinking. In 2007 I was struck by a car and almost lost my life. After rehab and fully recovering, I realized God had more for me to do. Three years prior to my accident I had my first child at 19. Before the age of 25 I had already experienced what could have been the ultimate tragedy as well as being a part of bringing life into this world.
Having lived through those life changing events at a young age, I started to form a perspective beyond what I could see or hear. My dad always said, “If you look hard enough, you can find the positive in every negative situation.” I began to formulate a mindset of embracing whatever happens.
As life continued, I had 2 more children. Their birth really changed the trajectory of my life. In that exact time frame, I struggled financially. At times, I couldn’t see them. It felt like everything was falling apart. However, I remembered the things I overcame at a younger age. Those experiences helped me in this stage of my life. (If you look hard enough you will find the positive in every negative situation)
During my trials and tribulations, I started to ask God, “Why is this happening to me?” I then felt like he said to me, “I have you in training.” I immediately thought to myself, “for what?” I then started to change my perspective and how I see things.
At that point, my perspective changed. With this life changing moment, I started to connect more spiritually. My life started to shift. I went on a birthday trip with a group of good friends to Atlanta, GA, and the drive turned into therapy for all of us. We gained and received perspective from each other. This Conversation created the birth of MINDSi.
