There’s this great idea that just about anything can be transformed from a challenge into a gift and opportunity.

For Joleigh Sherwood, it’s not just an idea…it’s a way to attack and create every day.

It’s how she overcame tragedy. It’s how she started her own national Nanny-matching business, and it’s her ceaseless piece of advice for just about everyone.

On this week’s show, Joleigh gives the step-by-step to a life that’s jam packed with possibility.

Segment 01 — Brother’s Passing

Joleigh’s brother passed away too early — and she transformed the tragedy into a catalyst for success in her own life. If you’ve faced the trauma of a loved one’s passing, this is a powerful listen.

Segment 02 — Landmark Communications

Joleigh is a big fan of how the “Landmark” organization teaches and shares intentional communications. Lots of chat about commitment, listening, layers and understanding.

Segment 03 — “There is no such thing as common sense…”

Joleigh’s favourite professor hit her with this quote as a way to remind her that so much in life is learned and absorbed — it’s not innate. “People do things differently — we are in the world because of the way we were brought up.” 

Segment 04 — Surfing

Sure, living in California has a lot of perks — but the ability to hit the beach at any given moment and meld with the water is Joleigh's perfect everyday opportunity.
