How Life's Worst Helped Me Achieve My Best

Beschreibung

We all face obstacles. Whether physical, spiritual, emotional, or financial, we are all working to overcome a roadblock ahead of us. When Shay Eskew's roadblock-a splash of gasoline and a lit match that set his body ablaze-came as a child, he had the choice to either succumb to his injuries or to rise above them. In What the Fire Ignited, Shay shares the trials and tribulations he was forced to face while recovering from his burns and reclaiming his life as an athlete.
