Samm Grace is still relatively young, in her early 30s, but she’s been through a traumatic, life-changing experience. When she was 25, she discovered that her kidneys were failing – when she was pregnant with her son. Samm persevered - even after being told to terminate her pregnancy - and came out the other side with improved numbers but still in danger of kidney failure. I think you’ll be inspired by Samm’s story today, and find a new gratitude for some aspects of life we don’t often pause to appreciate.

Meet Meredith Atwood - author, leader, transformation pioneer. Ten years ago, Meredith was someone she didn't recognize. She was an out of shape, work-obsessed, mom of two with blinders on.

Meet Emily Harvey - disability right attorney, wife, fitness model, founder of non-profit LIM359, and amputee athlete.

Emily's leg was amputated when she was two because she had a condition called fibular hemimelia, which means she was missing her fibula bone and her left leg was substantially shorter than her right. She grew up not really knowing any different, and even asked her grandma at some point when she got her first prosthesis because she simply believed that everyone wore a prosthesis. Listen for inspiration, motivation and more.

Happy New Year! It's 2017. Time to look forward, make plans and move your life in the direction you want it to go. I looked for some 2017 inspiration and found it in the form of my husband, Tim DeBoom, who retired from professional racing after 20 years and 2 Hawaii Ironman titles. He's in a different place now and it was fitting to interview him for this one as we just passed our 20 year anniversary too.
