I think that's what I encourage people, especially during this time, is like: you know you've got this opportunity to really like: evaluate where you are, you know, start setting goals, thinking about things you want to do when all of this passes, and think about some of the things you've learned in this process, things that you once had, that now maybe you don't, things that maybe you can live without, things that maybe you became obsessed with, or you know.
What happens when life throws you a curveball that seems impossible to hit? Lauren Sisler, an award-winning sports broadcaster for ESPN, the SEC Network, and AL.com, knows this feeling all too well. In this heartfelt episode of 'Dissect & Connect', Lauren opens up about the day her world shattered—when she lost both of her parents to addiction in a single, devastating moment during her freshman year at Rutgers University.
But instead of letting grief consume her, Lauren found a way to rise above it, turning her pain into a powerful message of hope and resilience. She shares how she navigated through the darkest times and emerged stronger, urging others to break the silence around addiction. This episode isn't just about Lauren's story; it's a beacon for anyone facing similar struggles, offering insights on finding optimism amid adversity.
Alongside her personal journey, Lauren also touches on how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted her career and personal life, including her upcoming wedding. If you're looking for an inspiring tale of overcoming unimaginable loss and advocating for change, this conversation with Lauren Sisler is a must-listen.
