Join us on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and transformation with our remarkable guest, Athena Johnson. Athena, a lifelong learner fascinated by cosmology, quantum physics, and consciousness, shares her inspiring story of growing up in Minnesota, braving the corporate world in the former Soviet Union, and the joys and challenges of being a transgender woman.

This episode dives into Athena's raw and profound reflections on her family history, the mining work of her grandfather, and her own internal explorations. You'll hear her discuss her experience of growing up in a dysfunctional household, the process of coming to terms with her transgender identity, and how she navigated trauma to find her true self. Athena's insights on the importance of emotional intelligence and vulnerability in leadership are thought-provoking and illuminating.

Athena also courageously touches on the societal challenges she faced when she came out as a transgender person in her workplace. She talks about her traumatic brain injury, the impact it had on her life, and her decision to live authentically. Athena's reflections on the interconnectedness of all beings, the courage required to transform suffering, and the power of being who you truly are, are deeply inspiring. This episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a dose of wisdom, healing, and inspiration you won't want to miss.
