When life hits hard—really hard—how do you get back up?

In this raw and powerful episode, Angela and Sami sit down with Nick Morrison, a former professional bull rider whose life was dramatically altered by more than 50 concussions. From chasing rodeo dreams to losing the ability to speak, Nick’s story is one of unimaginable setbacks and unshakable resilience.

Nick walks us through the highs of living his dream, the brutal reality of repeated head trauma, and how faith, grit, and a 15-minute rule helped him rebuild again and again. Whether you’re in a season of rebuilding or just feeling knocked around by life, this conversation is a must-listen.

In this episode:

  • How Nick faced losing multiple identities and found purpose again
  • What it really takes to forgive and let go of bitterness
  • The "15-Minute Rule" that can change how you process hard things
  • Why emotional honesty beats toxic positivity every time
  • How he relearned to speak and now inspires thousands

This one is for anyone who’s ever thought, “I don’t know if I can keep doing this.”
 Spoiler: You can.
