What if growth meant choosing discomfort—on purpose? In this deeply personal episode, Yaz shares what it was like to start life over in a new body after his spinal cord injury. From not laughing for four months to feeling like SCI rehab brought him to the edge of survival, Yaz doesn’t hold back.
But in that darkness, he found something powerful: the ability to connect more deeply with people who had been through something life-altering too. He talks about what changed when he stopped avoiding hard situations, and how other people with SCI helped him feel seen, strong, and capable again.
This episode is raw, real, and ultimately hopeful—for anyone learning to live again after everything has changed.
