This week on Dtermined AF, host Alexis Guttridge introduces us to Chris Bourke, a man whose story exemplifies extraordinary determination in the face of profound loss. After the devastating experience of losing his son, Chris refused to let grief define him. Instead, he channeled his pain into a remarkable 950 km hike through Europe, pushing his physical and mental boundaries every step of the way. Through sheer determination and an unyielding mindset, Chris found strength, healing, and purpose on the trail. His journey is not just about overcoming obstacles but about embracing them as a catalyst for growth. In this inspiring episode, Chris shares the lessons learned from his trek, offering powerful insights on resilience, mindset, and the relentless pursuit of one's own path. Tune in to be inspired by Chris’s unwavering determination and his message of hope for anyone facing life's toughest challenges.
