Brandon Farbstein is literally one of the rarest people on Earth, but his strength can be an example to everyone. Diagnosed with a rare form of dwarfism at the age of 2 (metabotropic dysplasia), his life is one of the most universally human lives I have ever known. In this deeply moving episode, Brandon shares with Hayley his suicide attempt, receiving daily death threats from students at his school and how he has been the driving force behind two pieces of legislation that were signed into law in Virginia, one on bullying prevention and the other requiring empathy and emotional intelligence to be taught in all K-12 classrooms across the state. Brandon’s journey of self-love, self-acceptance and service to others is a map of the most beautiful aspects of human nature and a reminder of the enduring rewards that come with personal responsibility.

A Conversation with Rocket Scientist Olympia LePoint
In this episode of 'Redefine You' Hayley and Olympia talk about how she overcame her mental and emotional limitations to turn herself into a formidable mathematician and scientist, how to develop the confidence needed to become a NASA rocket scientist, how to overcome stress and how to attract the things you want and need to have a successful, fulfilling life. Perhaps the most important members of any community are its leaders: people who see a path forward and help others make progress. Olympia LePoint overcame poverty, gang violence and sexual abuse while turning failing math grades into an award-winning career as a rocket scientist, helping NASA launch 28 Space Shuttle missions. That is strength. She then took her answers and turned them into groundbreaking books on how to unleash the raw power of the human brain, and devoted herself to helping others overcome their limitations.
