A few months back I met John O'Leary at an event, after not knowing much about him before that. His humility, integrity, and wisdom shined through and quickly I recognized that that type of leadership and relationship honest come without a story ...and that story needed to be heard. John O’Leary’s story began at nine years old, when a house fire left him burned on 100% of his body and given less than a 1% chance to live. Followed by years of hidden pain, stubborn hope, and a community t...

Some new home stories start with spreadsheets. Ours began with a tired face at a graduation party and a nudge that wouldn’t let go. After six years in an 800-square-foot cottage that doubled as an studio and home, we were out of options and almost out of hope.
