208. The Gift of Pain with Brian Bogert 🎨

Win the Day

“Never let self-doubt hold you captive. You are worthy of all that you dream of and hope for.” – Roy T. Bennett

At 7 years old, Brian Bogert was run over by a truck and his left arm was severed from his body...

Since then, he’s had years of intensive rehabilitation and 20+ surgeries to repair it.

Today, he’s on a mission to change the world. Equipped with a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and mental pain that can keep people buried, Brian helps individuals to discover and activate their limitless potential.

Brian's philanthropic work includes positions on the American Cancer Society, Adelante Healthcare, and the YMCA.

He is a husband and proud father of two.

In this episode:

• The childhood accident that changed Brian's life forever.

• How to stay motivated for the one extraordinary life you’ve been given.

• Why pain now can help you avoid suffering in the future.

• How to balance marriage, kids, and career.

Let’s WIN THE DAY with Brian Bogert!
