Chad Hymas: Transforming Tragedy into Triumph

In this thought-provoking episode, Chad Hymas shares his inspirational life story, beginning with a tragic accident that left him with severe disabilities. At the age of 27, a ranch mishap resulted in a broken neck, paralyzing Chad and confining him to a wheelchair. Instead of succumbing to despair, Chad chose to focus on his capabilities and positively impact others. He discusses the early days of his recovery, the crucial role his father played in his journey, and how he went on to set a world record by traveling 513 miles in a wheelchair from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas. Through overcoming immense challenges, Chad became a renowned speaker and mentor, touching lives worldwide with his message of resilience and positivity. Listeners are encouraged to draw inspiration from Chad's journey and re-evaluate their own perceived limitations.
