Donna Kennedy is a six-time bestselling author, psychologist, and life coach. She has helped professionals and different companies achieve unlimited growth.
In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, we hear Donna share her personal story (of overcoming challenges in her life) and her mission to be a beacon to other people. Learn about how she dealt with the trauma she has experienced and her battle with anorexia. Currently, she’s been helping other people by empowering them. So that like her, they can also get through whatever challenges life brings.
Get your headphones on, cause aside from the topics mentioned above, she also talks about having core values, levelling up your mindset, how to be grateful and more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Mental health should always be a priority. Donna herself had a tough time growing up—she experienced abuse at an early age and also suffered from an eating disorder. After recovery she promised not to downplay anything that happens to her body and wellbeing anymore. It was now time to take more care of it.
Donna is a mental health advocate. She is using her voice to bring awareness about it to other people. If there is one thing that massively helped her, it’s the people who have been supportive of her journey. They weren’t ashamed of her at all. And that’s why Donna’s fire in the belly focuses on this now—no one should feel alone.
Wherever your destination is, you need to have an unstoppable mindset. Donna also helps her clients traverse their paths regardless of what it is. You don’t have to present a grand plan. And if you surround yourself with the people who can raise your frequency—including a mentor like Donna—then you’re off at a wonderful start.
Donna’s core values: Love for people
Integrity
Honesty
Be grateful. Acknowledge what you have, so it’s easier to find your bigger purpose in life. It also becomes easier to be impactful in other people’s lives when you know your capabilities.
Having an unstoppable mindset, unfaltering energy, and determination, this can help you deal with challenges effectively. It’s difficult to reach such a state at the beginning. But if you know how your brain works, then you can be that person.
BEST MOMENTS
“I love a lot of people, but I learned that you have to be selective of the people you let in your life.”
“We need to be satisfied as basic human beings.”
“The easiest time to create change is to create it in a moment of heightened feeling.”
“Each moment that you breathe is a reminder you’re a miracle.”
“Success means waking up in the morning and knowing you can be the best you can be at any given moment.”
