#52 - From Paralysis to Purpose: The Party That Left Me Fighting for My Life | Rolf Meyer


Listen Later

At just 16 years old, Rolf Meyer’s life was turned upside down by a sudden brain hemorrhage. What followed was a year of hospitals, rehabilitation, and learning to adapt to a completely new reality. Rolf shares how he rebuilt his life, developed resilience, and discovered the importance of support systems, living in the present, and setting meaningful goals.


We discuss:


- How resilience and adaptability shaped Rolf’s recovery- The crucial role of family and friends during life-changing events- Why living in the present moment creates peace and clarity- The difference between healthy goals and being trapped by outcomes- How collaboration and empathy can accelerate healing and growth


Rolf’s story is one of strength, perspective, and the power of embracing change. Whether you’re facing setbacks or simply want to understand how to live with more purpose, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what’s possible.
