Carol’s Life Today

Carol runs two jewelry stores, is a talk show host, a health coach of 40 years, an international speaker, author and Grandma.

Worst Moment

It’s a challenge to pinpoint the worst part of a story and Carol does her best to pack 40 years into a 10-minute window of time. She talks about the mindset required to put one foot in front of the other and keep going despite difficulties. The key to her victory was never playing the blame game or allowing herself to be a victim.

Carol had more trauma in her life than most people experience. To share some of them; she was raped and left for dead on the street, twice her business partners stole and destroyed their businesses and her home was vandalized and burnt to the ground. Still, she didn’t blame God or anyone else. She has written a book sharing twelve traumas in twelve traumas where she will share more of her story. She had cancer, her husband was put in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, and she turned to gratitude. 

Turn Around Point 

Carol didn’t experience one defined turn around point due to the quantity of difficulty she faced. Her attitude was one of; “I am going to succeed and overcome this.” 

Carol’s Husband shares a strong quote. “Faith does not deny reality” What a great point, you can allow yourself to cry and feel sad yet at the same time have faith that you sill get over it! A few other things helped:

  • praying
  • believing she could
  • positive mental attitude 
  • shifting to clean eating

Carol overcame cancer, gave birth to a healthy baby despite being told that she never would and became a positive role model that helps others overcome difficulties. Listen to the podcast interview to hear the whole inspiring story. Listen Here
