Summary
You’re in for a real treat today because this is a powerful episode with inspirational success stories from two (2) Miracle Morning practitioners. Holly Bertone and Karen Stringer are two incredible women who have used The Miracle Morning to overcome tremendous challenges, achieve their biggest goals, and create lives they once thought were impossible.
Karen grew up in a rural village in Kenya, where money was scarce, and higher education seemed out of reach. But through unwavering faith and determination, she not only earned her PhD but also built a successful business as a language coach, entrepreneur and founder of KWS Language Services.
Holly’s story is equally powerful. As a former FBI Chief of Staff for Counterintelligence, she pivoted to a career as a Certified Holistic Health Coach after battling breast cancer and an autoimmune disease. And if that wasn’t enough, while going through a difficult divorce, The Miracle Morning became her anchor, helping her rebuild her confidence, business, and life.
In this conversation, you’ll hear how they applied The Miracle Morning principles to unlock new opportunities, shift their mindset, and achieve goals they could only dream about. Whether you’re struggling to stay consistent or looking for proof this daily morning routine can genuinely change your life, this episode will inspire you to take action today.
