How Unleashing Your Inner Leader Creates 💪🏽 Inspiring Stories


Hi Reader,

In this edition of Flying Upstream, we dig into the power of personal transformation and the art of overcoming adversity.

In episode 026: The Art of Inspiring Leadership Lessons from Joanna Horton McPherson, we interview Joanna Horton McPherson, a serial entrepreneur, speaker, and award-winning actor. Joanna shares her personal transformation, starting from a shy child to becoming a celebrated leadership coach. She discusses the profound impact of acting, poetry, and Buddhist meditation on her life, and how embracing her unique path led her to help business leaders inspire and connect with their audiences.

The episode explores the significance of self-awareness, emotional acceptance, and finding one’s true message.

In the podcast episode 027: From Adversity to Empowerment With Tarot & Oracle Magic with Brianna Osborn, she shares her incredible story from a tumultuous childhood marked by addiction, abuse, and bullying to finding resilience and personal growth.

Brianna opens up about her battles with self-harm, depression, and her husband's stage four cancer diagnosis. She highlights the significance of spirituality, setting boundaries, and the power of self-healing practices such as grounding and affirmations.

As we continue to explore the depths of human potential, we invite you to join us on this extraordinary journey. Stay tuned for more inspiring stories, practical advice, and unconventional wisdom.

Remember, you have the power to shape your own destiny.
