Summary
When Sarah Robbins lost her billion-dollar sales business overnight, it wasn’t just income she had to grieve—it was identity, leadership, and the thousands of relationships wired into her brain.
In this episode, we talk about how betrayal changes your mental landscape, how forgiveness protects neuroplasticity, and why clarity often comes from knowing who you are when the systems fall away. Sarah shares how she rebuilt her business and emotional stability in just one year—starting not from scratch, but from wisdom.
