**Forgive the technical difficulties and change in audio, Morgan left me alone this week and I clearly am not the brains of the organization! - Val **

Welcome back to another episode of You're Not Alone Podcast!

This week I interviewed Melody, our friend who sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) in 2016. Melody has joined me to share how she has managed to overcome the many obstacles that come with TBI, in her case, learning how to sit, stand, and walk again. She was told by her provider that she would never walk again, so Melody sought out a new team who believed in her determination to prove that person wrong. She has since made her way back to running 5Ks, is planning for marathons, advocates tirelessly on social media, and has recently created a start up brand, Glow Better Foods.

Melody outlines the five essential values to her success - Mindset, Attitude, Gratitude, Character, and Vision. Her awareness and inclusion of these values has helped her defeat the hard days and continue to move forward on her path.

Listen in and hear how Melody was able to nix the negative self-talk and become the best version of herself!

Follow along with Melody's journey on her Instagram pages @GlowBetterFoods and @kindnessandcocoa
