Have you ever felt isolated because of a secret you’ve been holding onto? It can be a heavy burden. A chance encounter at a critical moment inspired Gayle Petrillo to come out of hiding after 65 years of keeping her secret. She has written a memoir called The Accident, where she shares her story of growing up as a burn survivor, overcoming multiple obstacles and turning them into triumphs. She has had to overcome body image issues, fears and phobias and a lack of self-confidence in order to create a successful career in healthcare leadership followed by her becoming an entrepreneur and first time author in her 60s. In this episode we talk about how writing this book has helped her transform her feelings of being 'different' and 'damaged'.
