AMA: Brad Smeele - from Pro to Quadriplegic

Former pro wakeboarder Brad Smeele joins the show to share the story behind his book Owning It and the 11.5-year journey since a filming accident left him a quadriplegic. He explains why he wrote the book himself using a mouth stick, recounts the crash and rescue, and describes grief, rock bottom, and learning happiness. Brad discusses friendships, caregiving, accessibility, his wheelchair tech, breath-hold freediving, travel, and lessons on mindset, presence, gratitude, and asking for help.
