Episode 14 - Sarah Frei Mills, Why We Find Strength Together

from Waking the Why · host Stacee

This week’s guest is Sarah Frei Mills. On July 30, 2020, Sarah’s life changed forever when the car she was riding in was hit head-on by a drunk driver. At just seventeen years old, she suffered a T11 spinal cord injury that left her paralyzed from the waist down and required the amputation of both of her legs. After more than twenty surgeries and months of recovery, Sarah chose resilience over despair, inspiring thousands with her courage and faith. Now a college graduate, elementary school teacher, and powerful voice for hope, Sarah shares her story to remind others that even after life’s most devastating moments, purpose, joy, and possibility can still be found.
