using clips from the ones who's story it was

Heidi is a phenomenal author. She really wove these amazing stories into a powerful book. I recently moved cross-country and it was really an amazing listen for those long days on the road. I love audible for the ability to be able to reflect on personal trials and tribulations and to recognize where I am now, from where I once was. I think everyone has a lookup story of their own and this was a great way to take pause and celebrate that with these amazing people's stories.

Wonderful diverse stories of resilience

The book is inspiring…it gives hope to all of us, no matter what challenges we face.
