S4E13: Mentorship From A 17 Year Old Foster Child - The Power Of Gratitude, Mindset And Perseverance With Tommy Sigman

The Mentee Podcast

You are NOT a product of your circumstances. You ARE a product of YOUR CHOICES.

Are you ready to break free from your limiting beliefs and self sabotage?

If you want to learn more about the power of perspective in overcoming challenges, and navigating through the path to joy and success in spite of adversity, tune into episode 13.

In my conversation with Tommy Sigman, I learn more about his journey, struggles, and how he has been able to persevere and achieve in his life after growing up in unfortunate circumstances. Tommy was kicked out at the age of 13, and then given a second chance after being placed in foster care. He is now thriving, having written his own book, starting a non profit, and succeeding academically in school.

Tommy shares with me how shifting his mindset, adapting gratitude, and making the best out of his situations got him through and changed the course of his life. I could really connect to this because out of my 3 core values in life, gratitude is my top priority. When you express gratitude in your life, you feel more joy, build stronger relationships, have more positive experiences, and deal with adversity.

Tommy and I take a deeper dive into the framework of his new non profit, that is designed to teach kids from low income communities and foster care the skills and resources to help them thrive psychologically and physically in life. Tommy’s passion is to help them ultimately break the ties to their earlier experiences in life, and paint a positive, clear vision for their future.

We also discuss Tommy’s book, “The Greatest Advantage”, where he shares his journey through neglect, instability, child abandonment, and getting a second chance in life through foster care and a new mindset. He shares the lessons he’s learned from these experiences in hopes to guide others to new heights of possibility, help them break past their self-sabotaging tendencies, and overcome the idea that they are a product of their circumstances.

I left my conversation with Tommy absolutely blown away by his wisdom, outlook, and successes despite the cards he has been dealt. I am truly inspired by his passion, and desire to help other children dealing with similar unfortunate circumstances. I am also passionate about guiding young adults and foster children to be set up for success in their future through Quantum Leap. I am truly excited and grateful for the opportunity to connect with him, have this powerful conversation, and be given the chance to help him on his mission in the future.

When you’re ready to take control of your mindset, perspective, and path to your future, listen to episode 13.
