Kevin Saunders will share his personal story of triumph and help you find the courage to never give up regardless of your personal challenges or career obstacles. Kevin’s incredible journey of survival and triumph began when paralyzed by a grain elevator explosion as a young man. Though the doctor told him there was no hope, against all odds he survived. Paralyzed from the chest down, he struggled to find a new meaning and focus for his life. Abused and abandoned by his young wife, his life fell into disarray. Divorced, bankrupt, and utterly alone, Kevin fell into a deep depression. Show co-host Sheryl Dawson shared, “Rather than remain miserable, Kevin sharpened his body and mind to become a world class athletic competitor. Now he teaches his audiences around the world to move forward in spite of whatever challenge they may face.” Kevin Saunders has received more than 100 commendations, proclamations and awards for his work to improve health and fitness and education in America and around the world.

Depending on a person’s age – more specifically, when they attended school in this country – almost everyone has either taken the PCPFS’ physical fitness test, been educated about healthy living through its printed materials, or heard lifestyle messages from its spokespeople.
