About this listen

Riley Kehoe is no stranger to fear. At ten years old, she survived the 2004 Southeast Asian tsunami in Thailand. After that traumatic event killed nearly 230,000 people, she began asking herself each day, What do I want to do with this gift of life I've been given? She realized that she could let fear rule over her—or she could choose to have courage.

Sharing her remarkable personal story, Riley shows you how small acts of bravery can change your life in ways you can't imagine. They can mean the difference between a life of isolation or one of connection, between playing it safe or taking a bold step forward, between being self-focused or reaching out to help others, between holding a grudge or offering and accepting forgiveness.

Filled with dramatic and touching stories—such as when Riley performed CPR on a drowned man and brought him back to life and when she climbed onto the ledge of a bridge to talk a young man out of jumping—this book will inspire you to approach every day with a spirit of courage, possibility, and hope.

Fantastic book. Riley inspires us to live a life out of our comfort zone - with courage, love and compassion. She reminds us to love on others, as Jesus would. A book to read over and over again.
