Michael Hingson and his guide dog Roselle were on the 78th floor of the World Trade Center’s north tower on 9/11. He shares that story in the New York Times bestseller Thunder Dog: The True Story of a Blind Man, His Guide Dog & the Triumph of Trust at Ground Zero. On this episode, we discuss that book and the tragedy and heroism of that day along with his latest book, Live Like A Guide Dog: True Stories from a Blind Man and His Dogs about Being Brave, Overcoming Adversity, and Moving Forward in Faith.
Micheal is available to speak on his 9/11 experience but also on perseverance, the importance of teamwork and trust, moving from diversity to inclusion, and offering adaptive technology training. He hosts The Unstoppable Mindset Podcast: where inclusion, diversity and the unexpected meet.
