"Pick up your pen and write a different story."
Loading player...
There's a saying that you regret more the things you didn't do than the things you actually did.
Verity's dad was 48 when she was born. He passed away suddenly when she was 24.
When she was in her teens and didn't want to listen to his advice, he took to writing her letters. Filled with positive affirmations, she didn't realize the value of these letters then, but her dad stuck with it, knowing in his hard-earned wisdom that these things would be important in time. And boy, oh boy, was he right.
In this episode, Verity Price tells a story filled with twists and turns. From losing her dad at 24, to walking the Camino de Santiago in his honor, writing a letter to the future, and even following a man to America. Verity went on to sell 2,000 copies of an album before it was even recorded, and in 2021, she beat 35,000 people to become the World Champion of Public Speaking.
QUOTES:
"I was shaken to my core. We had a week with him, and it was really rough because he was paralyzed. So this very verbal father that I'd had could just look at me with his eyes, and he was totally paralyzed from the stroke."
βThe biggest lesson I learned from that was that your ego often has one idea of what your life should look like and your soul has another.β
"I cried so much while rehearsing them and hoping they could hear how much I love them, and my speech that I won with was literally saying, "Your life is a book. If you're not enjoying the read, pick up your pen and write a different story."
