Skydiving with Multiple Sclerosis + Vision Board Successes w/ Guest Kevin Payne

Published: Nov. 30, 2021, 2:13 p.m.

Welcome, this week's guest Kevin Payne!

Doctor with Multiple Sclerosis loses everything he loves about life, hits bottom, and vows to reclaim his lost childhood dream of becoming a legit skydiver (600 jumps), even with all the extra challenges. Spends a decade researching how to craft a life each of us can love — even with chronic stress, pain & illness —  then writes book, teaches others, builds company (and keeps jumping out of planes for self-care). Links below!

I started this episode still not wanting to skydive just like I've thought for years, and finished it wanting to skydive. I start out by asking Kevin to clarify what exactly Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is, and then we jumped into his story. He talks about when he first wanted to skydive, to when he first actually skydived, and then when he was diagnosed with MS and gave up on skydiving, leading into when he got back into it. We talk about a lot of things in detail along that path, not the least of which, skydiving. Kevin goes into detail with almost every question I asked him, and that kept bringing new questions to mind that just kept things rolling and super engaging. He also shares about deciding to live his dream despite what doctors and those around him told him, and how that has helped to keep him going and in better health as well. Right near the end of the episode, I share my 53rd Vision Board success and Kevin gives me a new point of view on it than what I had, which was great. We wrap this one up by sharing some more details on skydiving and living your dream.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life. Then after they've shared their story we transition into talking about vision boards for a little bit and I share one of the successes that I've had. Again, why I'm sharing my successes with you is to show that you can do the same thing, to use a vision board yourself and that you can rewrite your stars in your own life. Also, if you want to be a guest on my podcast, then be sure to fill out this questionnaire so that we can see about making that a reality. Because there are so many stories of people rewriting their stars, and I want to share them! https://forms.gle/obKbT739sukbrWWE6
