Welcome to Paul's Positive Podcast, hosted by Amy Iverson
In this special episode, we explore the heartwarming tales of both young and old transcending their challenges and turning them into inspirational victories.
First, meet Audrey and Ella, charming six-year-old twins from Lorena, Texas. Despite their early childhood battle with Metopic Craniosynostosis, a condition where skull plates prematurely fuse, these young girls have emerged not just as survivors, but as beacon of hope. After enduring critical surgeries to reshape their skulls, they have taken up the mantle as Children’s Miracle Network champions. Touring Texas to share their story, they support pediatric healthcare advancements, inspiring everyone they meet with their resilience and joy.
Then, listen to the life-changing journey of 63-year-old Anthony Hurd, a retired CEO who, upon retirement, found a surprising new path as a fashion model. Anthony's unexpected career move into the fashion industry, appearing with brands like Nike and Reebok and walking the runways at Paris Fashion Week, breaks stereotypes about age and opens up conversations about embracing new adventures, no matter the stage of life.
Join Amy as she delves into these stories of courage, transformation, and community spirit, proving that every challenge carries the seed of opportunity. Tune in to feel uplifted and reminded of the incredible possibilities that life has to offer.
