No one understands you or the gifts you have to offer better than you. This is your life. Whatever path you find yourself on, know that it is yours to choose.
Imagine being told you wouldn't live past the age of two. Now, picture defying that prognosis and becoming a beacon of resilience and inspiration. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Anna Gouker, the author of 'Don't Ask Permission to Fly'. Anna's life story is a testament to overcoming the odds and redefining what it means to live fully.
Born with a genetic disability, Anna was expected to have a short life, but she has continually shattered those expectations. Today, she’s not just surviving but thriving as a writer, speaker, and advocate for people with disabilities. Anna’s unique journey offers a fresh perspective on self-discovery and the power of personal choice. She shares how she navigates life in a motorized wheelchair, emphasizing that no one understands your potential better than you do.
Her message is clear: your path is yours to define. Throughout their conversation, Anna discusses her experiences in both homeschooling and public school, highlighting how these different environments shaped her worldview. She also touches on the importance of self-care, the mind-body connection, and the healing power of writing. Anna's book aims to inspire others to see themselves as leaders in their own lives, regardless of their circumstances.
Whether you’re looking for motivation to tackle your own challenges or seeking to understand the diverse experiences of others, this episode offers valuable insights and heartfelt stories. Tune in to hear Anna’s empowering message and learn how you too can take charge of your destiny.
