Episode 26 - From ‘Retarded’ to Resilient

In this deeply personal episode of *The Doctor’s Corner*, I reveal the journey that shaped my life and mission. I was told I was ‘retarded’ and would never graduate from 8th grade. But I refused to let labels define me. Through faith, resilience, and relentless determination, I transformed from a struggling child into an International Best-Selling Author, Business Growth Strategist, and mentor to  100,000 teens and parents.

This episode is more than my story—it’s proof for every parent that your child’s current struggles don’t determine their destiny. With the right tools, guidance, and mindset, transformation is possible. And if I could do it, so can your teen.
