405 SelfWork: The Gift of Perspective: A Conversation with Lindsay Roy
Perspective is a gift. But most of us gain our perspective from years of living and learning.��Life often hands us challenges that build that perspective and that wisdom.
But not too many people have two catastrophic medical conditions to cope with ��� and certainly not two that occurred in the span of a decade.
Lindsey Roy had just that.
At age 31, Lindsey Roy was named vice-president at Hallmark Cards ��� one of the youngest in the company���s more-than-100-year history. Her life was abruptly transformed five years later when she was nearly killed in a boating accident. Left with an amputated left leg and severe limb injuries, and facing a long and difficult recovery ahead, she was determined not just to heal, but to emerge stronger.
A second blow...��Eight years post-accident, fully adapted to her circumstances and genuinely thriving, Lindsey confronted the unexpected again: she was diagnosed with a rare and progressive disease that destroyed the blood vessels in her lungs, requiring a double-lung transplant. This profound setback challenged her to actively shift her viewpoint in order to discover the hidden advantages of her situation and new depths of resilience in herself.
Now a sought-after speaker, she���s imparting these hard-won lessons to help you adapt, persevere, and innovate in your own life.
