“She Helped Build My Confidence and Turn Major Setbacks into Reinventions” with Guest "Passionstruck" Podcast Host and Author, John R. Miles

Should Have Listened to My Mother Podcast

Before her children were born, Betty was a teacher. Later in life, when the kids were older, she began working at the Tennessee Aquarium and worked there for more than twenty five years, some of the happiest years of her life.

John is the oldest of three children, two boys and one girl. His parents raised him from a young age, with the understanding that children had to learn how to do things on their own, to figure things out and learn how to be self sufficient. John continues "they provided the essentials for us, but if there were things we wanted above and beyond that, they needed to be earned." HIs parents were good parents who taught their children to help others, be active in the community, volunteer for others, etc. "They had very high expectations for the person they wanted me to become in life".

John had a tragic accident when he was a young boy. It was his mother's reassuring attitude and encouragement that helped John heal and gain back his sense of self confidence. Betty was determined and resolute in helping her son believe in himself again.

When listening to "Passionstruck," John's podcast, you'll come to understand the challenges he still has today from that accident, but his perspective is that it happened for a reason and does not let it get in his way. His guests are insightful and well versed in successes and failures and all that's entangled with each of these experiences.

After listening to this episode, be sure to give "Passionstruck" a listen. So many inspirational lessons to learn.
