This week I am stoked to have KInzie Dickman, from West Virginia.  Injured in 2017, KInzie has an incredible diagnosis and her story of recovery is a wild ride.  Join me as we learn more about KInzie.  She shares how she was able to overcome depression that comes along with the injury and she tells some great stories about her recovery and support.  She has continued wake boarding at cable parks and skating long boards.  If there was a contest for 'Leaning into the injury', this chick would be at the top of my list.

Kinzie has turned my head and given me a reason to take notice of what she has done for herself not only physically, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually.   Now is she is leading the way for others in a similar position, living with SCI.  Kinzie is starting Because of Brandi, a 501c3 non-profit.  Because of Brandi, KInzie has a new wheelchair and this was the catalyst Kinzie needed to motivate her to help others get quality equipment from loved ones that have passed away after living with SCI.  For more information on Kinzie or Because of Brandi, please see the links below.
