Yordan Ascanio emigrated from Cuba to the United States when he was fourteen years old, his family lucky winners of the Cuban Visa Lottery. By turns humorous and insightful, Yordan shares his story, from arriving in the USA somewhat bewildered, to becoming a physical therapist and learning about stoicism from an injured Olympic athlete. He shares how these page turning events shaped his life and ultimately led him to help others turn the page and live their best lives.
