What does it take to rebuild your life when everything seems broken?

At just 14 years old, Nick Prefontaine suffered a traumatic snowboarding accident that left him in a coma. Doctors told his parents he might never walk, talk, or eat on his own again. But Nick had other plans.

In this moving episode, Nick shares the mindset, moments, and messiness behind his remarkable recovery—and how he now helps others rise through crisis using his STEP system: Support, Trust, Energy, and Persistence.

We talk about:

• The power of belief (even when you can't speak it out loud)
• How Nick’s mother protected his healing by guarding what he heard in the coma
• The quiet wisdom of listening to your inner voice
• Why taking one step often leads to everything else

This is more than a comeback story—it's a blueprint for anyone who’s ready to begin again.
