Black Belt Living: Sharon Volner on Courage, Discipline & Transforming Adversity into Power

Описание: On this empowering episode of The Meredith Show, Meredith welcomes back keynote speaker Sharon Volner — Chief Clinical Officer at LaVentana, licensed therapist, single mom, and second-degree black belt whose life mission is helping others find hope, healing, and their inner warrior.

Sharon’s story is one of extraordinary resilience, discipline, and transformation. From surviving a difficult marriage and rebuilding her life as a single parent… to losing over 70 pounds, reversing health challenges, and rising as a powerful voice in mental health and recovery… she embodies what she calls “Black Belt Living.”

In this powerful conversation, Sharon shares:
🥋 How martial arts transformed her confidence, courage, and identity
🥋 What it really means to channel your “inner warrior”
🥋 Lessons from the mat that apply to leadership, parenting, and everyday life
🥋 The powerful moment her sensei taught her to fight for herself — not just others
🥋 Walking away from a marriage that no longer served her
🥋 Losing 70+ pounds and reclaiming her health
🥋 The discipline of “non-negotiables” for success
🥋 Why your time is NOW — not someday
🥋 How small steps (“10% courage”) create massive transformation
🥋 Raising a daughter while rebuilding her life from scratch
🥋 The importance of tribe, therapy, and asking for help
🥋 Breaking stigma around addiction and mental health
🥋 How serving others became her greatest purpose

Sharon also speaks candidly about growing up, surviving a toxic marrige, receiving help at her lowest point, and turning that pain into a career dedicated to helping families heal from addiction and mental health struggles.

✨ “Transformation is loving yourself enough to make the next right decision.”
