What happens when life throws you one curveball after another? How do you rise, rebuild, and find your true purpose?

In this episode, Lon Stroschein sits with Kevin Hoover, an elite performer whose life has been shaped by pivotal moments of triumph and heartbreak. From humble beginnings in Mooresville, North Carolina, to a whirlwind career in hospitality, coaching, and real estate, Kevin shares his story with vulnerability and wisdom. 

But the real turning point came when his 4-year-old son was diagnosed with cancer—a moment that redefined everything he thought he knew about success and purpose.

You expect powerful insights about life’s unexpected turns, the strength of family, and how faith and resilience can help you rewrite your story. Whether you’re seeking inspiration or clarity in your journey, Kevin’s story will move you to take stock and action. It will show you there is life after cancer. 

Key Takeaways
  1. Transformation doesn’t need to be radical; it can start by identifying the “ingredients” of your ideal life.
  2. Faith can be a powerful anchor, offering clarity and strength during life’s most challenging moments.
  3. Prioritizing family and relationships over external achievements creates a foundation for true fulfillment.
  4. Traveling and stepping out of routine can be deeply healing, offering fresh perspectives and stronger connections.
  5. Adversity can become a turning point, pushing us to realign with what truly matters.
  6. Inspiring others often begins with sharing your authentic story and lessons learned along the way.
