#004 - Rob Tortorella - From Tragedy To Triumph

Rob Tortorella became paralyzed in a car accident just days after his college graduation. He shares his journey of recovery and the unbreakable mentality he has developed over the years. On Rob's 50th birthday, he was surprised with the gift of a 501C3, which eventually became the Endless Highway Foundation. The foundation aims to dismantle barriers and make recreation more inclusive for people with disabilities. Rob believes that his gift to the world is his empathy and ability to connect with others.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Days at Holy Cross02:12 College Lacrosse Experience04:12 Accident and Recovery09:49 Starting the Endless Highway Foundation19:24 Surprise Gift on 50th Birthday21:38 Barriers to Inclusive Recreation24:13 Rob's Gift to the World27:28 Realizing Purpose in Life30:28 Impact of Endless Highway Foundation32:23 Contact InformationSend us Fan MailThank you so much for listening.
