Moments Matter: Surviving the Hudson River Plane Crash #118

On January 15th, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 made an emergency landing on the Hudson River. 155 passengers and crew survived what came to be known as the “Miracle on the Hudson.” In this bite-size conversation from The Inner Entrepreneur, you’ll hear a first-hand account from a passenger who lived through it.

We explore:

• The mindset and preparation that shaped his response in those life-or-death moments.
• Why “proximity is power” and the role mentors like Tony Robbins played in building resilience.
• How teamwork and leadership emerged in the face of chaos.
• The unspoken mission that united 155 strangers: no one dies today.
• Why every one of us will face our own “personal plane crash” moments—and how to prepare.

This story isn’t just about survival. It’s about leadership, perspective, and remembering what truly matters.
