New Podcast: Author, Gold Star Sister, and President of National Veteran Service Organization Highlights Stories of Resilience
Travis Manion Foundation President Ryan Manion launches 'The Resilient Life' podcast
DOYLESTOWN, Pa., August 4, 2020 (Newswire.com) - There are few guarantees in life, but facing adversity is one of them. In a new podcast out today titled The Resilient Life, hosted by Gold Star sister, author, wife, mother of three, and President of Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) Ryan Manion, leaders from all walks of life discuss how personal and professional struggles have shaped their character and how they learned to respond in the face of trials moving forward.
According to Manion, resilience is all about "struggling well." Conversations will focus on how the principle of struggling well relates to current events, TMF’s mission to empower veterans and families of fallen heroes to serve, and personal trials guests have overcome. With each guest, Ryan focuses on sharing lessons that listeners can use to face adversity more effectively, all the while turning life’s challenges into growth opportunities.
The podcast features a wide array of guests, and the inaugural episode (launching Tuesday, August 4th) features Alex Gorsky, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Johnson & Johnson.
“In the years since the loss of my brother Travis, I’ve learned that my life need not be defined by a tragic event, but it can be inspired by it,” says Manion. “My hope is that listeners will join us on this journey with some amazing guests as we explore how to struggle well through life’s inevitable challenges.”
The Resilient Life podcast is available on all major podcast streaming platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify, Radio.com, and more. A video version will also be available on YouTube. Subscribe to the podcast here: https://ryanmanion.com/podcasts
