Choices Change Everything
Cheryl Ecton knows all about adversity and how to push onward even when life goes sideways. She has encountered more than her fair share of obstacles but has always landed on her feet at her next destination.
She built, from the ground up, a thriving business in a male-dominated industry despite only having a high school diploma. She navigated the serious medical needs of her daughter with grace and fortitude. She faced a crumbling marriage and bitter divorce head on and came out the other side stronger than before. No matter what she’s confronted with, Cheryl has found a way to live a life that is true to herself with humility, humor, and hard work.
When Life Keeps Knocking You Down shares Cheryl’s experiences from all parts of her life and the lessons she learned along the way. Cheryl offers helpful advice about staying focused, leading with your values, and knowing when to change your mind.
“The goal isn’t always up. The path isn’t truly straight. It sometimes goes zigzag… Eventually, I know, I’ll reach my destination, but there will be some twists and turns along the way. . .
