What’s It All About?

Today’s episode is all about turning adversity into purpose. Host Kevin Lowe shares the inspiring story of Andrew 'Andy' Buerger, a man who transformed his personal tragedies into a mission to help others. After losing his mother, father, and beloved sister Jodi, Andy created Jodi’s Climb for Hope, a nonprofit dedicated to funding medical research through adventure-driven fundraising. Through Andy’s journey, we explore how living for something greater than ourselves can fuel resilience and purpose—even in the face of unimaginable loss.

One of the most powerful moments of Andy’s journey? How writing his children’s names on his water bottles while descending Mount Whitney gave him the strength to keep going. This small act is a reminder that when we have something to fight for, we can push through even the toughest moments.

Some Key Takeaways:

• Purpose fuels resilience – Finding a cause bigger than yourself can give you the strength to overcome life’s hardest challenges.
• Small acts matter – You don’t have to start a nonprofit to make a difference; everyday kindness and support can change lives.
• Loss can lead to impact – Even in the darkest moments, there’s an opportunity to create something meaningful that honors the past and helps the future.
