Nicole spent over 30 days in the hospital and was diagnosed with a rare lung disease. She was told she would have a lifespan of up to 8 years and she never allowed that belief to enter her mind. Many others living with this have not survived and Nicole had some survivor guilt to work through.

In the blink of an eye, Jake's life changed course and he ended up being paralyzed from the chin down. In just a few short days, he made the decision to choose to adopt the motto Life Happens, Live it! It took some time for him to live that motto to its fullest and he shares his journey with us here.   I want to thank Joel from Relaunch for introducing me to Jake.  What really inspired me to share Jake's story was listening to the podcast Mere Mortals Unite, with Julie Ann Sullivan.

No one survives a plane crash.... this is what Dave thought as the plane went down and he watched out the window to see when his last seconds would be. Dave heard his mom say, "If you do the right thing God will take care of you". His mom had passed away in 1997 but he heard her say this and that's why he waited in the back of the plane to make sure everyone else got out. Once he knew everyone was off the plane he got off himself. Why do some people get PTSD and others experience Post-Traumatic Growth? Dave was asked this question and he has been really looking into this. He will be giving a TED talk called Jolt and sharing how you can use your own personal experience to go up. The movie shows quite vividly what PTSD looks like as the Capitan of the plane would see troubling images over and over again. http://www.everydayisasecondchance.com/miracle-of-mindset-on-the-hudson-with-dave-sanderson/ Dave's website: http://davesandersonspeaks.com/ Dave's facebook page https://www.facebook.com/DaveSandersonSpeaks/ Da

He was raised in two parent home with good morals and values yet slipped into the street culture and made some poor choices in his early years. Eugene ended up in prison and found his passion, chess. The "Chess Man", in prison told him he would always be a loser if he didn't accept responsibility for his own actions. He told him, "you are the king, you're responsible for every rule that is made on your side of the board, stop blaming people. Until you accept your kingship you are always going to be in and out of prison." These were the seeds that were planted and a paradigm shift happened. Today Eugene is the father of an inner-city chess club that helps children stay off the streets and make wise decisions. His story was made into a movie, Life of a King, starring Cuba Gooding Jr. Hear the story and all the details here! http://www.everydayisasecondchance.com/the-big-house-to-the-chess-house/ Links Eugine's website http://www.bigchairchessclub.org/index.htm Email xsolo3@comcast.net Phone: 202.396.1780 S

She was 30 years old and had really thought she was quite invincible in a way that most young people do.
