Surviving a snowboarding accident at such a young age leaves an indelible mark on one's life. On today's episode, Nick Prefontaine shares his powerful story from his eighth-grade ski trip where a lack of a helmet turned a day of fun into a fight for survival. Without the crucial protection of his goggles and the timely response from a skilled paramedic, Nick's story might have ended differently. He courageously takes us through his harrowing journey of recovery, where he had to relearn the fundamentals of life—walking, talking, and reclaiming his sense of self. His determination and resilience shine as he reflects on how these life-altering experiences paved the way for his life's purpose, hoping to inspire others to pursue their dreams regardless of the hurdles they encounter.
