Janet Sherlund – Abandoned at Birth
Overcomers Overcoming
Janet Sherlund chronicles her life as an adopted child. Being adopted made her feel as though she was living a “borrowed life,” undermined her sense of trust and personal value, and impacted every decision she made. It also led to a lifelong quest to find her biological mother, with the hope of finally feeling a tether to this world, a sense of belonging, and ultimately, herself. Adoption is often painted as a happy, inspirational act - a baby finds a family and lives happily ever after. But the truth is that adopted children experience displacement and rupture from their mothers,...
info_outlineAlan Lazaros is a business coach, consultant, trainer, and speaker specializing in helping businesses maximize their growth, impact, and profitability online. He believes in a heart-driven approach to inspiring, motivating, and educating others on what is required to reach the next level. When he was two years old, his father passed away in a car accident. At age 26, after getting into a nearly fatal car accident himself, he questioned everything he was doing in life. It was a moment of comprehensive introspection to determine his worth and direction. He asked who he was and the choices he was making and had made. He was at an all-time low. Filled with regret, he searched for answers and found two of the brightest lights he had ever seen. The first bright light was a book by Bronnie Ware entitled, “The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying,” and the second was a Ted Talk by Tony Robbins. These resources helped him find his way and guided him to go ALL IN on self-improvement to design a life of meaning and purpose. On this self-improvement journey, he has learned to believe in a heart-driven approach to inspiring, motivating, and educating others on what is required to reach the Next Level. Today, he proudly says his mission is to help others create a life of success and fulfillment. He learned the hard way how empty success without fulfillment is and how to limit fulfillment without success as well.
