About this episode

Have you listened to the FULL EPISODE yet?

"My life's goal is to string together moments of a lifetime, just like that one that I could just feel. And I just, everything I do, every single thing I do is built around how I can build a moment in time for like my life, my children and the things that the people that I love." -Glennda Baker

Glennda Baker's transformation from feeling like a misfit to becoming a beacon of self-empowerment is nothing short of remarkable. As the only child of divorced parents in her school, Glennda struggled with feeling "cheated" out of the picture-perfect family life she saw around her. Coupled with a major back surgery in seventh grade, she found herself desperately trying to fit in, her self-worth entirely dependent on her associations with others.

But 2017 marked a turning point in Glennda's life. After overcoming her struggles with alcohol in 2015, she embarked on a journey of self-discovery that led her and her 16 year old son to a Tony Robbins event and a profound realization: her value was determined by herself alone. This epiphany, along with a touching moment shared with her teenage son, ignited a new life mission for Glennda – to create meaningful moments and embrace her authentic self. Her story serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of self-acceptance, sobriety, and the courage to prioritize genuine connections over people-pleasing behaviors.
