What’s next? None of us knows what’s going to happen, and life requires constant learning and adaptation, says Linda Olson, Motivational Speaker, Author, and Triple Amputee. Rather than being bothered by this uncertainty, we can prepare for change and then accept, adapt and innovate when it happens.

Linda knows about adapting to change. When she and her husband, Dave, were vacationing in Germany, a train hit their vehicle, leaving Linda a triple amputee. Determined not to be a victim, Linda was motivated to maintain her independence and to be of service as a doctor.

Following a 30-year career as a radiologist, Linda has now written a memoir, Gone: A Memoir of Love, Body, and Taking Back My Life, which will be published this October. The key themes in her story are resilience, hope, and taking control. At the heart of her memoir is a love story between Linda and Dave, and their enduring commitment to each other.
