S24E3: Failure is Not Forever: The Power of Creating Your Own Narrative with Marion Jones

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman

Hey lady! The Fall is often a time to self-reflect and take stock of your life and choices. When doing that life review and assessment, how do you feel about yourself? As a human it’s guaranteed that you will make a mistake in life, but grown women know that mistakes are not what define you – how you handle them is what defines you.

This week Terri and Dr. Dom welcome world renowned athlete Marion Jones to Cultivating H.E.R. Space to discuss her unique life path and the lessons learned from the challenges that arose from her time both in the public eye and in prison. Marion shares her powerful testimony about how the experience of facing public scrutiny based on her choices and paying her debt to society allowed her to find the deeper meaning that can help others.

Marion offers one important lesson – your mistakes do not define you and only you are in control of your narrative. Tune in to find out the other gems she shares to help you lift the veil of shame that is keeping you from owning your victory!
