Alex Ikonn: How extreme challenge shaped his mindset, attitude and choices
Description
🌸This week, Cressida and Isabella are joined by Alex Ikonn, founder of Intelligent Change and creator of The Five Minute Journal.
🌸Alex reflects on how gratitude was born for him through extreme challenges. From escaping a murderous Uncle in Russia when he was young, to starting over in the United States, Alex watched his mother work tirelessly to build a new life for their family while somehow staying positive throughout.
🌸Alex shares how reframing difficulty became the foundation for course-correcting his life when he found himself headed down the wrong path. He explains how just a few minutes of gratitude journaling each day can shift your entire perspective on life.
🌸Join Cressida Bonas and Isabella Branson as they explore how maternal figures have shaped the lives of their guests. Each episode delves into the valuable lessons they’ve carried forward, those they’ve left behind, and the profound impact their maternal figures have had throughout their lives.Â
đź’¬ Plus, hear from listener Fabiana, who shares some of the most valuable lessons she’s taken from her mum!Â
