This week we are honored to sit down with a living, breathing, real-life miracle. Our friend Bryce is here to talk about his harrowing brush with death. On December 19th, 2017, Bryce was feeling terrible. He went to the E.R. to see what was going on with him. Doctors were convinced it was nothing to worry about. That is when his wife, Jenny, implored them to dig deeper. When the doctors dug deeper they found that a terrible thing was going on in Bryce's body. Specifically in his heart. His aorta had exploded and he was in big trouble. He was flown to a trauma hospital and given about a 3% chance of survival. He was having an Aortic Dissection. He said that the surgery is basically like trying to sew a wet kleenex back together. He was in a coma for 6 days and his chest was wide open for3 of those days. He is alive today truly against all odds. We are so glad that he is! Listen in and hear his story in his own words!

The ladies sit down today with Jenny. She has had her share of bumps in the road. Her daughter has been a medically complicated child. As Jenny and her husband Bryce were beginning to see some light at the end of their complicated tunnel, another tragedy emerged. Bryce was not feeling well one day so Jenny took him to the E.R. The doctors were about to send Bryce home to take some medicine and rest. It was at that point that the skills of advocacy that Jenny had developed from the years of consistently advocating for their daughter really kicked in. She fought for him to be looked at closer. To run some tests. After running some more tests the doctors quickly realized that Bryce had an Aortic Dissection. He was dying and dying fast. In this situation, Jenny knew who she had to be for her husband at that moment. Listen in and see how you could ask yourself " Who should I be for so and so"? You know who I'm talking about!

Our friend Steve joins us today! Although he is an amazingly talented professional, we did not invite him today to talk about what he does for a living. Steve is a friend. I mean he is a friend to everyone. You can't be in a room with him without feeling like you are cared for. It's a gift! We have known him for over two decades and this is who he is. It is something that he purposes to do though. He makes reaching out to those around him a priority. Today he joins us on the Pod to discuss why this is important in your attempt to " Be Personable".

Happy New Year from all of us here at Destination Connections! This Road Trip Prep series is perfectly timed! Over the next three weeks, we will tackle the questions that are on everyone's mind. How do we care for our physical, mental, and spiritual health? During the New Year many people are taking stock of these specific areas of their lives. What can they do to strengthen themselves in these areas? I don't think it's a coincidence that the timing of these episodes landed here during the new year. We sincerely hope that Destination Connections can be an encouragement to you as you ask yourself these questions. This week we speak to author Leslie Davis. Leslie is the author of her self-help book "You Can't Eat Love". Join us as we discover how when we take care of ourselves physically it can drastically affect how we are able to connect with others.
