This week we meet Eleanor Pendergraft, a senior Olympian who turned the power of saying, “You’re wrong,” into the race of a lifetime. From a young age, Eleanor’s life was full of adversity. An abusive father, a no-good husband, job loss, and finally a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis that left her practically immobile, Eleanor shares her journey with Leslie on how she overcame each one. She was able to get back on her feet, both literally and figuratively, to have a beautiful life and become the senior Olympian that she is. 00:00 - Intro 03:07 - Interview with Eleanor Pendergraft Follow Us on Social Media: Leslie Gold (@twitter) A Life’s Story (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Learn more about your ad choices.
