QuitProof: The 7 Necessities for Becoming Resilient
Take away:
The importance of learning to appreciate the ordinary, finding joy in being present, and embracing curiosity and enjoyment in the journey rather than solely focusing on the end goal.
Money Learnings:
Lessons were learned from a grandmother’s garage sales and starting a lemonade stand as a child. The importance of buying low and selling high was emphasized.
Bio:
Jenn Drummond achieved business success as the founder and CEO of a
thriving financial services company. Her move to Park City, Utah, with her kids, fed her family’s passion for everything outdoors. But on a snowy evening in 2018, Jenn’s life was knocked off its tracks. She was in a horrific car accident that brought her inches from death. Everyone agreed that she shouldn’t have survived, yet somehow, she did. In the aftermath, it became crystal clear to Jenn that while she cannot control when she leaves this life, she–and the rest of us–can choose how to live it.
Jenn’s confrontation with death imbued her with vigor, enthusiasm, and
commitment to full engagement in life. Now–more than ever, she is focused on becoming an inspiration, guide, and cheerleader, not just for her children, but for outdoor enthusiasts around the world. Urged on and supported by her family, Jenn has now become the first woman to climb the World’s Seven Second Summits–the second tallest mountains on every continent.
In January 2024, Jenn will be releasing her book, “QuitProof: The 7 Necessities for Becoming Resilient,” a powerful account of her journey through triumph and resilience after surviving a near-fatal car accident in 2018.
Highlights from this episode:
- Surviving a traumatic car accident in 2018 provided a new outlook on prioritizing living life to the fullest over strictly following norms and expectations. It gave courage to pursue passions.
- Climbing mountains, despite risks and fears, teaches important lessons about knowing your limits, perseverance, teamwork and enjoying the journey. Summits may be brief moments that cap long, rewarding climbs.
- Businesses can benefit from recognizing points of failure as opportunities to evaluate, learn and reorganize to keep progressing, just as climbers do when acclimatizing up mountains.
- Support teams must evolve as businesses scale new heights. Growth often requires letting go of whatGot you there to embrace new directions and skillsets.
- Appreciating everyday moments, not just extraordinary pursuits, brings abundance, beauty and joy. Slowing down and being present is so important.
- Taking time to acknowledge our bodies, not just our thoughts, helps relieve stress and reset mentally to write a new positive story going forward.
