A true fighter and alive to talk about it with guest JD

The Beautiful Bag

JD is a true fighter and he is alive today to talk about it.

After a motorcycle accident that left him clinging to life with breaking more than half the bones in his body, being in an induced coma for over a month, and being told he would never walk again, he is defining the odds and really has an incredible story to tell.

The accident also left him with an ostomy. But he has decided to not dwell on this and he reminds himself every day that this all happened for a reason. It happened so that he can talk about it, he can share his journey, his struggles, and encourage others to shift their perspective and mindset when life changes so drastically like this. Because without that change in your thinking, you will give up and not see your true potential.

“Anyone going through anything physical or mental in your daily life or job, keep persistent, keep resilient, keep pushing because everything starts from the mental aspect. Once you let yourself break down completely mentally, then that is when everything is gone. So keep consistent and keep trying your best every day.”

You have to listen to this story of perseverance after being on the brink of death. We are so honored that JD is here to talk to us about this today.
