Synopsis

Audacious Optimism delivers a riveting account of Shanna Adamic's journey from a highly successful career as a corporate philanthropist and former professional cheerleader, to surviving a rare and life-threatening brain tumor, to limited mobility and a 4% chance of regaining facial function on her right side, to her complete recovery and developing an unwavering dedication to optimism. This book teaches listeners how to rally from within and push through those terrifying moments in life, when you've got it all on the line, and when the odds are looking slim, to find the hope and courage needed to make it through the darkness and out into a life full of wonder and joy.

Now an executive leader at Oracle, Adamic's story is one that everyone can learn from. In this book, listeners will find insight on embracing the unknown, igniting willpower, and envisioning beyond the impossible; finding the strength to mindfully choose optimism, even in the darkest of times; and leveraging optimism in every arena throughout your entire life to become an unstoppable force.

Audacious Optimism is an inspiring, motivational, at times heart-wrenching, and completely relatable journey that will inspire anyone facing adversity to live their absolute best life.
