Our inspiration for this episode of the ReadMHK podcast is this year's K-State First Book, Unthinkable: Who Survives When Disaster Strikes - and Why by Amanda Ripley. This book reviews not only disasters, both natural and man-made throughout history, but uses those disasters for context to examine how and why people survive, and what we can do to increase our odds of survival. Join us as we speak with Annie Spence, a personal trainer who offers client-centered coaching, based on her years of experience, her degree in Kinesiology, and her broad-reaching professional certifications. Thanks to her previous strength training, Annie survived a traumatic crush injury in New Zealand that led to a six-month hospital stay, left her with 29 screws and three plates in her pelvis and spine, and she eventually had a complete hip replacement. This left Annie with an even greater gratitude for movement, health, and strength.
