The Bodacious Optimist Podcast
Kelly Brush on An Adaptive, Positive Mindset
Kelly Brush is a mother, athlete, healthcare professional, and the inspirational leader behind the Kelly Brush Foundation (KBF)—an organization dedicated to making active and engaged lives a reality for those who have experienced a spinal cord injury. In 2006, Kelly crashed and injured her spinal cord while racing for the Middlebury College ski team. After undergoing rigorous rehabilitation for her new life in a wheelchair, Kelly and her family created the foundation—just months after her accident—as a way of channeling the support she received in her recovery and to share the power of sport for physical and mental health, confidence, and community building. In this podcast, Kelly shares her story and talks with Sascha about KBF’s aim to influence culture and how all humans are living adaptive lives.
