Welcome to Episode 9 of Tuesday Stories with J.R. Bjornson.
In this episode, J.R. opens up about one of his most painful childhood memories the day his gym teacher called him fat. That moment stuck with him for years but it also taught him a powerful lesson. Join J.R. as he reflects on how that experience shaped his lifelong commitment to kindness.
J.R. is currently fundraising to purchase a pair of assistive glasses called eSight Go, which retail for $5,300. With $1,948 raised so far, every donation or even a simple share helps bring him closer to seeing his wife, his children, and his loyal dog more clearly each day. As his world comes into focus, you can bet he’ll share every step of that life-changing journey right here on the podcast and across his online platforms. Click here to visit his GoFundMe page today.
