Aviator Jeffrey Morse was living an action-filled life, travelling the world with his career in the military and in commercial aviation. Then in 2012, he suffered a brain aneurism, a dissected artery and a paralysis-causing spinal cord stroke. At the age of forty-nine, Jeffrey was told he would likely never walk again. He made a vow that he would walk out of the hospital anyway. Six weeks later, he did just that. Host Sue Stockdale discovers how Jeffrey Morse was able to accelerate his recovery by utilising skills he had learned during his career and how Jeffrey now inspires others to reframe their own challenges or obstacles by focusing on positivity, gratitude and self-responsibility.

'Suddenly I'm realising I'm sending commands from my brain to my body and my body isn't responding.''I had no idea what the future was going to hold at that point, but I wasn't going to let the surgeon's prognosis of what he thought be the last word.' 'My life wasn't over, if I could provide some sort of hope and inspiration to this man in the bed next to me.' 'Sometimes I would sit and think that those things that I did in my past, sort of prepared me for this thing.' 'I'm focusing on this life and making this life happy.' 'I was looking at life from the perspective of what I was doing was 80% physical and 20% psychological. And I found the more I got into things that it was absolutely the opposite of that.''Perfect comes with practice. In other words, give yourself the latitude. Trying and failing and trying again.'
