20. Cultivating Resilience with Oleg Lougheed
Episode description
Oleg Lougheed is an all around amazing human being.
This is a dude who had every reason to identify as a victim in his life but time and time again he chose to believe in the potential that he was one more person, one more question, or one more day away from getting what he wanted.
From relinquishing his parents rights at 9 years old and checking himself into an orphanage in Russia, to eventually finding himself in here in the states where he had to adjust to a new culture, a new language and a new way of life. He still viewed it all as a window of opportunity as he goes on to share. His life is the ultimate story of resilience.
Some things I ask him are –– how long it took him to reframe the victim mentality, what some of the beliefs he had to let go of were and how he is cultivating resilience during this time.
We also talk a lot about the importance of cultivating new relationships, as well as deepening those that already exist.
We go pretty deep in this conversation and there are some gold nuggets that I know I’ll hang onto for years to come.
