Episode 101: Amberly Lago – Resilience, Pain, and the Power of Joy
What if the worst moment of your life became the defining moment of your greatest strength?
In this episode, I sit down with Amberly Lago, bestselling author, speaker, and resilience coach, to discuss her journey from near death to unstoppable success.
Amberly shares how a life-altering motorcycle accident left her with a one percent chance of saving her leg, yet she defied the odds through grit, gratitude, and an unshakable mindset. After 34 surgeries, she rebuilt her life, proving that pain and joy can coexist—and that true resilience is forged in the hardest moments.

- The accident that changed everything—and the moment she chose to fight
- Overcoming excruciating pain, 34 surgeries, and an incurable nerve disease
