Look at her!
I had the great privilege to meet and even get some advice from Amy Purdy. I love snowboarding so she’s just sooo cool. Straight up legend.
Meeting someone who went through a teen battle now living the dream… it was like a piece of my heart started to heal. Man, it hit me! Pure, unadulterated hope, right into my soul.
Funny story Amy shared, one time her legs detached mid board run and went flying down the hill. And then a lady screamed from the chairlift. Plus, who knew legs got shipped?
I arrived early to hear her speak. I wasn’t even running late. That’s a miracle. (Amy if you’re reading this you’ve cured my chronic running lateness). But get this, she even chatted with me!
Amy, you’ve shown me I can. In you, I see the spirit of my own 19 year old self and 20 year old me believes it. She even told me to message her, which that connection means everything. I’m hoping we can meet again, so I can show you how much your resilience has meant to me. And then a celebration shred!
I’ll never forget you,
Kam
