JJ Virgin

The Mindset That Creates Miracles

Perhaps something like this has happened to you. Or someone you know.

Either way, it’s one of those moments that shows you who you are and what’s most important.

But that doesn’t fix the situation.

So what is the best way to handle major life crises?

Today’s guest on The School of Greatness experienced this exact scenario 4 years ago.

And she just wrote a book about the surprising discoveries she made while fighting for her son’s life and keeping her own health and career intact.

JJ Virgin is one of the top nutrition experts in the country.

She is a 4 time NYT bestselling author and has appeared on pretty much every major health show for years.

But none of that prepared her for when her son Grant was nearly killed in a hit and run accident.

In her newest book she shares what she learned while going through that trauma and what she has learned since in her work beyond nutrition.

I loved this interview with JJ and appreciate how real and honest she was about the true power of our minds over our health.
