Welcome to The Betty Rocker Show, the place to be to nourish your mind, love your body, and rock your life.
Today I’m excited to welcome my dear friend, inspirational speaker and emotional empowerment expert, Sarah Prout. She went from living on welfare as a single mother in Australia to becoming an award-winning entrepreneur, podcast host, and author of Dear Universe.
In 2019, a video produced by Goalcast (a viral platform for videos with powerful messages) shared Sarah’s story, went viral and has now been viewed by over 57 million people around the world. Sarah experienced some positive and negative consequences from that video – which you’ll hear about in this episode.
We discuss the power of how we tell our stories, the trouble with what Sarah calls “the coma of convenience,” and the importance of taking personal responsibility. This episode was recorded during the peak of the 2020 pandemic and we discovered that our internet connection wasn’t always as strong as our heart connection – so my apologies for a couple of dips in the audio quality.
About Sarah Sprout:
From her site: “I’m a speaker, author, creative entrepreneur, and mother of four… dedicated to helping you create a life you can truly be happy about by using your thoughts, emotions, and energy to shape your own reality.”
