What does it look like to live a life anchored in passion, purpose, and presence—even when everything changes in an instant? In this unforgettable episode, world-renowned surfer Bethany Hamilton shares the story behind the headlines: the wild love her parents had for surfing and for nature, how she passed that passion to her own kids, and how the ocean became both playground and healer. From losing her arm at age 13 to becoming a bestselling author, mother of four, and voice of hope for millions, Bethany opens up about what truly sustains her—faith, family, and the willingness to keep showing up.

Bethany and Ginny dive deep into the power of outdoor legacy, what it means to live aligned with your calling, and how we can help our kids find joy beyond screens. They talk resilience, motherhood, body surfing aunties, and why adults need passions too. You’ll walk away ready to fight for what matters most—and to keep going, even when it’s hard.
