From Loss to Leading with Purpose: Gale Jones Carson Resilience in Reinventing Her Career

Gale Jones Carson story is a powerful example of the S.O. What! Success System in action. She has faced unimaginable loss, career shifts, and moments that could have broken her—but instead, she chose to Overcome Obstacles, Eliminate Excuses, and Calculate Choices to build a life of strength, leadership, and impact.

Growing up in a family of seven, Gale Jones Carson learned early on what it meant to work hard and push forward.

But when she faced the devastating loss of her son, she was met with a challenge no parent should ever have to endure. Instead of allowing grief to stop her, she found purpose in her pain, using it to fuel her growth and help others.

Her ability to pivot and reinvent herself is just as inspiring. She transitioned from journalism to leadership roles at Memphis Light, Gas and Water and Federal Express, proving that success isn’t just about where you start—it’s about having the courage to evolve and keep moving forward.
