Why Renewed Minds?

"As  the host, I openly share my personal journey—a narrative of resilience and transformation. Through the highs and lows, I delve into my successes, failures, invaluable lessons, and profound breakthroughs. The genesis of this show traces back to a period of life-shaking struggles, including an arduous divorce at the age of 50. 

It involved the looming threat of homelessness and the poignant shift from fostering children, whom I had intended to adopt, to finding myself without a husband and children. My husband's decision to abandon the promises of our forever commitment threw an unexpected curveball into my life.

In the face of these challenges, I realized that survival required a fundamental rewiring of my mindset. The journey toward embracing a growth mindset intertwined with unwavering faith became my lifeline.  

This challenging experience demanded that I reprogram my thoughts, and  it was this mental fortitude that allowed me not only to endure but to  bounce back and experience a triumphant victory.

This personal revelation fueled my desire to create the Renewed Minds podcast. I recognized that my story is not unique; countless women  stand at the crossroads of adversity, grappling with uncertainties and  facing challenges that threaten to derail them from their full  potential. 

Moreover, I understood that the struggles faced by women are mirrored in the lives of teen girls navigating their own  tribulations—peer pressure, bullying, and the weight carried by those I  refer to as "fatherless girls," young women shouldering the burden of  paternal absence. This burden is familiar to me; their fathers, like  mine, chose not to be involved in their lives.

The Renewed Minds podcast serves as a refuge—a safe space for women and teen girls to  shed their fears, relinquish the baggage holding them back, and strive  towards becoming the best versions of themselves.

My  mission with this podcast is clear:  to inspire women and young girls to take control of their mindset, emotions, and behavior; break free toward mental health freedom by overcoming depression, anxiety, and life-threatening thoughts; and empower them to bravely rise above challenges with confidence and strength, so they can reach their full potential—all while recognizing their inherent self-worth.

This  journey is not just mine—it's a shared experience, a testament to the  strength that arises when we, as women and teen girls, confront and  overcome the trials that life throws our way.

I  believe that fostering a growth mindset is key to overcoming life's  challenges and achieving one's full potential. Through our podcast, we  aim to instill this mindset in our audience, encouraging them to embrace  change, learn from experiences, and continuously evolve on their  journey towards success and fulfillment. 

Join us on Renewed Minds as we explore the transformative power of a growth mindset together." - Leslie O'Hare
