In 20 20, when a patient like i was burned on a hundred % of their body, 87 % third degree, but e hundred per cents, the first number, hundred percent of the bodies shows up. In to day's terms, they have a hundred and nine% likelihood of dying. 33 years ago, there really, there wasn't any chance at all. And yet we're having this conversation, right? Listener, don't, don't give up hope yet. The guess to day survives the fire. So hang on for the surprise ending. Yes.
In 1987, John O’Leary was a curious nine-year-old boy. Playing with fire and gasoline, he created a massive explosion in his home and was burned on 100% of his body. He was given less than a 1% chance to live. John not only survived but, with the support of an incredible family, friends and community, found a way to reclaim a sense of wonder, joy and service that has led to a stunning career inspiring millions, writing books, while marrying the love of his life and raising four kids together. His #1 National Bestselling book ON FIRE recounts much of this story, and his popular Live Inspired Podcast takes you deeper into lessons learned. John's new book, IN AWE, (https://amzn.to/3dQ1dUO) explores the key elements that allow you to live from a place of awe, no matter what the world throws at you.
We recorded a Good Life Project conversation with John in 2016, which you can listen to here: https://www.goodlifeproject.com/podcast/john-oleary-2/
