WCD 005: Hal Elrod

Hal Elrod is an entrepreneur, best-selling author, keynote
speaker, and podcaster. He's best known for his 2012
best-selling book, The Miracle Morning, which has grown into a
personal development phenomenon, selling over 1 million copies
and translated into 27 languages. The Miracle Morning online
community boasts nearly 300,000 members on Facebook and is
regarded as one of the fastest growing and most engaged online
communities in existence.


 


Hal actually died at age 20. Hit head-on by a drunk driver at 70
miles per hour, his heart stopped for 6 minutes, he broke 11
bones, and eventually woke from a coma to be told by doctors that
he would never walk again. Not only did Hal walk, he went on
to run a (52 mile) ultra-marathon and become a hall of fame
business achiever—before the age of 30.


 


Then, in November of 2016, Hal nearly died again—his kidneys,
lungs, and heart on the verge of failing, which led to his being
diagnosed with a very rare, very aggressive form of cancer. As
you could imagine, with kids and family, he had to tap into the
depths of his mindset practices to get through that experience.
