135. From Polio to Podcaster: A Masterclass in Resilience and Voice with Sifu Rafael

Do you know that your greatest pain could actually be the gold that makes you shine? Well, in this soul-stirring episode, Sifu Rafael shares how childhood polio, being an immigrant in a new country at a young age, and deep personal loss became the very foundation of his power. From learning to walk again to becoming a sought-after speaker, podcaster, and renowned martial arts guru, Sifu shows us that resilience isn’t about avoiding the cracks - it’s about honoring them. You’ll hear how forgiveness, perspective, and identity shaped his healing and how you, too, can turn your broken pieces into brilliance.
