Today on the show, Ondi welcomes two inspiring new authors. Susan and Jacob Brower form a mother/son duo who hope to share two sides of a story with their current book, The Bull Didn’t Win.

 

At the age of 15, Jacob suffered a terrible bull-riding accident that cost him a three-week coma, a seven-month hospital stay, and ongoing recovery. Their book hopes to help and inspire children and parents going through a life-changing event.

 

Tune in for a truly honest, authentic, and deeply human conversation about what it means to remain inspired, how authenticity can serve you, and why you should never give up.

• Be your child’s biggest cheerleader.

• Tell your story truthfully, whatever it is.

 

• Never give up!
