The 8x8 Cabin: A Memoir of Survival and Adventure

from People Of Distinction · host Al Cole

What happens when sewage in your bathtub becomes the catalyst for building an 8x8 cabin—16 feet off the ground—in the Alaskan wilderness? Kristina Ahlnas didn't just survive the brutal cold, wild animals breathing outside her tent, and a bone-crushing fall off her ladder—she thrived. In this raw and inspiring conversation, Kristina shares how she turned impossible odds into a four-year adventure of grit, prayer, and perseverance that will make you rethink what you're truly capable of.
