Dr. Dan interviews Margaret Anne Mary Moore, the author of the new bestselling disability memoir Bold, Brave, and Breathless: Reveling in Childhood's Splendiferous Glories While Facing Disability and Loss. A disabled individual, motivational speaker, publishing professional, and para athlete, Meg was given no chance to live at birth and now she is sharing her inspirational story in her book. 

On this empowering episode, Dr. Dan and Meg talk about her memoir, her triumphs as well as her thriving writing and publishing career.

Margaret Anne Mary Moore is a graduate of Fairfield University’s Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing Program and a magna cum laude graduate in English/creative writing (with a minor in psychology) from Fairfield University. Margaret also works as a book editor and the marketing coordinator at Woodhall Press and also as an ambassador for her communication device manufacturer, PRC-Saltillo. 

Margaret is the founder of The Yes You Can Movement, a presentation series/blog in which she shares her experiences as a disabled individual, motivational speaker, career woman, para athlete (for her Girl Scout Gold Award project) and Positivity For Patients: The Art of Yes You Can, a community service initiative to donate displays of art and writing centered on themes of positivity and motivation to hospitals in the hopes of brightening patients' spirits especially during long stays and pandemic restrictions.

When she is not writing or working, Meg can be found running. Meg is a runner on Team Achilles CT and has been a paratriathlete on Gaylord Sports Association’s ParaTriathlon team.
