536: Turning Your Pain Into Purpose with...

HAL ELROD
About this episode

Losing a loved one unexpectedly, especially a co-parent, is an unthinkable scenario that most people thankfully never have to endure. But in 2021, that's exactly how life unfolded for Adair Cates. Today, she's sharing her remarkable journey of turning her pain into purpose and how others can do the same.

Adair is the head of Conscious Leadership at xchange, with over two decades of experience in leadership development. In the span of a year, she navigated an amicable divorce with her husband, embarked on a co-parenting journey during the pandemic, and suddenly became a single mom when he left on a trip and never made it home.

In our conversation, Adair shares some simple yet effective actions to help manage life's biggest challenges. By practicing these steps, you'll experience a shift in how you handle your emotions and interactions with others and focus each day on sharing love and positive energy to live a more meaningful life.
