Healing an Invisible Disability & The Power of Empathy: Anthony Hope – Into Healing S1, Ep.6

Into Healing with Mira Kaddoura

Our guest Anthony Hope likes to push limits in everything he does, whether it’s creatively at his Los Angeles–based design consultancy ERNSTeverything™ or in his passion for skateboarding, BMX-ing, car racing — all things fast. But when a life-altering car accident disabled him from the waist down, suddenly there were different limits. Anthony shares his journey of pain, solitude, courage, tenacity, and resiliency, including re-learning to walk alongside his young son. Through Anthony’s story you can truly see how sometimes our biggest challenges teach us the most about the meaning of life.
