We also talk about audacity, the “why not me” mindset, resilience through adversity, and what seeing the world taught Rebecca, from West Point to building a life overseas.If you have siblings, if you are a parent, or if you are still trying to understand what made you who you are, this one will hit.Chapters00:00 The conversation I wasn’t ready for00:28 Nature vs nurture and how we were raised01:54 The messy middle people never see03:34 Where our parents got it wrong07:38 Consequences and accountability09:22 “I was wrong.
