Join us for our milestone 100th episode as we chat with Patric Young: author, motivational speaker, and founder of the Patric Young Foundation.

Patric had to sit to learn to walk again. Ten days before his wedding a single-vehicle accident left Patric paralyzed from the waist down.

The former University of Florida men’s basketball standout, who used to run up and down the court, was now focused on learning how to walk.

Patric knows he’s one of the lucky ones. Lucky to be alive and lucky enough to be insured. But despite his medical coverage, this experience has opened Patric’s eyes to the material gaps in what the healthcare system will provide versus what is needed to achieve independence.

Four months following his accident and while undergoing intensive therapy and treatment, Patric launched the Foundation.

With a mission to help those facing life-altering injuries, the Patric Young Foundation works to provide financial, emotional, and physical support to those who need it most. Every day, he takes the next step in becoming who God has called him to be. As a motivational speaker, author and philanthropist, Patric is on a mission to challenge people to live with purpose.
