Marcus Aurelius Anderson is a proud Veteran, Bestselling Author, TEDx & International Keynote Speaker, Mindset Coach to Warriors, Leaders, CEOs and Entrepreneurs, and host of the Acta Non Verba Podcast.

While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army Light Infantry, Marcus suffered a severe spinal injury that left him paralyzed from the neck down. After dying twice on the operating table, the surgeons saved his life, but told him - he'd never walk or use his hands again.

After months of anger and suicidal depression, having no other options, Marcus started doing some brutally honest soul searching, looking for the lesson to be learned from his injury. Once he started seeing his Adversity as a gift instead of a curse, something miraculous began to happen...

Join us for a discussion with Marcus on what it means to face adversity, how we can face it better, and why it is an important aspect of the mindfulness journey.
