In the seventh part of the new segment of Starting Overdrive called Turning Points, which explores life-defining events of irreversible change, creator and host, Reg Seeton, tells the story of how he discovered his true purpose in life after starting over on the west coast, being lost, and having his life on pause for so many years on the east coast.
After getting hit by a car in 1985, waking up from a coma, a five-year recovery, starting over, and moving across Canada into the unknown, Reg found himself lost all over again in a new home struggling to find his true purpose.
In this episode, Reg recalls how he woke up one day in 1995 and made the pivotal decision to take control of his professional life and work to make his dreams come true.
In Turning Points: Part 7, Reg explores the many reasons why he was lost and searching for a greater purpose in life after years of overcoming family dysfunction, the loss of his family unit, the demise of his parents' relationship as a young teen, getting hit by a car, waking up from a coma, years of surgeries, and unresolved trauma.
In this episode, Reg shares exactly how he started over again and found his true purpose in life, a fulfilling long-term career, and how the discovery of his purpose was the very beginning of a 20-year career that saw Reg become an early pioneer in one of the most popular online industries.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
