At age 8, Charlene Norman knew she “had a brain and was here to help people.” Fast forward a few decades, Charlene became a super successful business consultant. That is until life threw her a huge curveball.
In 2015, she contracted an infection that affected her brain/spine, and then two strokes and seizures. She was in a medically induced coma. When she emerged, she could not talk, walk, and barely could feed herself. While her body was healing, the mental piece was the hardest. She had to discover how to cure her thoughts in order to heal it. Thus, her deep dive on studying all she could learn about the brain and how to repair it. Interestingly, in the middle of this, there was a fierce determination to get through this and not be disabled as a result. And in 3 months, the doctors were calling her a medical miracle. She used what she knew about growing a business and applied it to her physical healing.
The challenge Charlene faced after recovering is that she had been no longer able to work because her brain wasn’t functioning at the optimal level. For her, the worst part of the journey was shame. Having lived with full confidence and unstoppable ability to conquer, the idea of being dependent, downsizing their house, and not being able to work hit her the hardest.
We speak a great deal about how this trauma changed Charlene for the better. Some of our conversation revolves around how our identities change as we grow. If you are tied to the identity that who you are is what you do, you will relate to Charlene as she shares so beautifully her journey of letting the “old” version of her go. In the end, you will hear the gifts that Charlene got from her experience, and you can be inspired to get through whatever is going on in your life.
