Today, I'm conversing with with Ken Kunken, a man whose life was forever changed in an instant. At just 20 years old, Mr. Kunken suffered a devastating spinal cord injury during a football game, leaving him as a quadriplegic. Facing unimaginable challenges, he battled through the physical, mental, and emotional toll of his condition.
Mr. Kunken shares how he felt that he had little guidance or hope provided to him by other disabled individuals or medical staff. However, he also shares about how the unwavering support of his family, a few key mentors, and his own resilience helped him defy expectations. He details his return to higher education just days after his hospital discharge, his groundbreaking career in law, and his unexpected journey into marriage and fatherhood—raising triplets despite his disability.
Beyond his personal triumphs, Mr. Kunken is now dedicated to uplifting others. As an advocate, author, and board member of the Viscardi Center, he works to provide employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, as well as hope for them. Tune in to hear his insights on perseverance, the importance of community support, and his book I Dream of Things That Never Were, a testament to turning adversity into purpose.
