Today Patty welcomes Jo Giese, author of 'Keep Chasing Waterfalls,' She shares her story of a freak accident that left her questioning if she'd ever walk again, let alone hike. Despite a botched surgery leading to her losing her Achilles, Jo's determination and extensive rehabilitation allowed her to defy the odds and return to hiking. Jo reflects on her active life before the accident, including childhood adventures and her love for the outdoors, which eventually led to her fascination with waterfalls. She explores the scientific and emotional benefits of being near waterfalls, such as the soothing sound and negative ions that can improve mood and health. She emphasizes the kindness of strangers and the importance of community.
