This week's guest is Sergeant Adam Hartswick, a veteran whose life took a drastic turn in 2013 when he sustained catastrophic injuries in combat—ultimately losing both of his legs and part of his arm. But Adam’s story isn’t just about war or the tragedies that come with it. It’s about resilience, purpose, and using life’s hardest lessons to create something meaningful.
A quick heads-up—this episode includes graphic details of Adam’s injuries. If that’s something you’d rather avoid, you may want to skip ahead when he begins describing May 14, 2013.
It’s an absolute honor to have Adam share his journey—the struggles, the growth, and the incredible strength it takes to rebuild after everything changes in an instant. Please enjoy this conversation with Adam Hartswick.
