Every child has a dream of what they'll be when they grow up. For Jesse Bradley, his dream was to be a professional athlete. His dream came to fruition, but at a price he never imagined he'd have to pay.
During his time traveling the world, he landed in Zimbabwe playing professional men's soccer. Though, medication meant to protect him from malaria brought on a brutal bout of illness, ending his dream career. "… and yet, it was the greatest growth period of my life," he says, "I was fighting for my life for one year, it took 10 years to fully recover."
When it seems like your life is falling apart, what do you rely on? For many, it's hope, yet half of Americans experience hopelessness.
The good news is there are simple steps you can take to overcome hopelessness and find the light at the end of the tunnel. Jesse Bradley is here to share what he's learned from his inspiring journey of illness, recovery, forgiveness, and resilience.
