College was supposed to be the next exciting chapter…

But before classes even began, I was already facing obstacles I never expected.

In this episode of Resilience with Tasha Schuh, I share what it was like to leave home, choose a college, and discover just how inaccessible the world could be after my injury.

From finding the right campus and navigating caregivers to learning independence, advocating for accommodations, and adjusting to college life, this season stretched me in ways I never imagined.

In this episode:

• Choosing the college that felt like home
• Discovering the realities of accessibility
• Moving away from home and starting over
• Learning independence and self-advocacy
• The unexpected lessons that shaped my first year of college

This chapter wasn't just about earning a degree.

It was about discovering who I was becoming.

What happens when you've fought so hard to survive... and now you have to figure out how to live?

In this episode of Resilience with Tasha Schuh, I share what it was like returning to school, navigating new challenges, and trying to find my place in a future that looked very different than the one I had imagined.

Along the way, I discovered new sources of hope, gained important independence, and began to realize that life after my accident could still be meaningful, purposeful, and full of possibilities.

But even as things improved on the outside, there were still battles happening beneath the surface.

In this episode:

• Returning to school and adapting to a new routine

• The life-changing impact of wheelchair camp

• Finding greater independence through surgery and adaptive equipment

• Graduating with the class I was determined to finish alongside

Leaving the hospital was supposed to feel like freedom.

Instead, it brought a whole new set of challenges.

In this episode of Resilience with Tasha Schuh, I share what it was like to leave the safety of the hospital and begin adjusting to life outside its walls.

From moving into the Ronald McDonald House… to relying on my family in new ways… to returning home and facing a world that suddenly felt very different, this chapter was filled with uncertainty, emotion, and important lessons about perspective.

While some moments brought hope, others brought heartbreak.

But through it all, I began discovering that resilience isn't about having all the answers.

Sometimes it's simply about finding the courage to keep moving forward.

In this episode:

• Leaving rehab and transitioning to the Ronald McDonald House
• Learning to adjust to life outside the hospital
• Returning home and reconnecting with friends
• The people who helped carry me through one of the hardest seasons of my life

Next time, we'll continue the journey as I learn new routines, prepare for graduation, attend wheelchair camp, and continue figuring out what life after injury would look like.
