007: How to Turn Tragedy Into Triumph with Alan T. Brown

from HowieDoinIt — a podcast about resilience · host Howie Kra

In 1985, just after high school graduation, Alan T. Brown received a phone call that no one wants to get. One of his best friends, Danny, was paralyzed from the waist down after breaking his back in a terrible car accident. Danny was just 18-years-old. Little did Alan know he would find himself in a similar predicament a few years later while on vacation with friends in the Caribbean. In the blink of an eye, Alan went from being a healthy young man who loved playing sports to lying on his back unable to move. On today's show, Alan talks about the accident that completely changed his life, and how he turned a personal tragedy into a triumph.   Show Notes: HowieDoinIt.com/07 Subscribe, Rate, & Review: http://howiedoinit.com/subscribe Connect with Howie: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube Ask Howie: If you want Howie to answer your questions in an upcoming episode, drop him a line at [email protected]
