Front Porch: Celebrating Memorial Day

Hi Beautiful,

First, I want to honor thank all our Veterans for their service and sacrifice. It’s because of you, I’m able to raise my family in this amazing country. Thank you and God Bless.

My wish for all of you is that you’re able to spend some time with friends and family over this holiday weekend. For myself, I’m with my family in Florida.

We all need time to relax and rejuvenate as well as spend time with our family and friends, and I hope you were able to enjoy that this weekend. 

Xoxo

Catch up: From Tragedy to Triumph with Jamie MoCrazy

Doctors told professional skier Jamie MoCrazy she would never be normal again after she suffered a traumatic brain injury that left her in a coma for 5 days. 

This week, Jamie is here with her sister Jeanee, and we hear their incredible story of resilience and recovery.

Not only has Jamie made a miraculous recovery, but she is helping others who have suffered traumatic brain injury with her foundation, MoCrazy Strong. You don’t want to miss this inspiring episode of The Kim Gravel Show. 
I’ve met a lot of very successful people, and I’ve seen first-hand that the more real and authentic you are, the more successful you can become. I put Martha Stewart in that category as someone who is living her purpose. She’s a hero of mine and you’ll have the listen to the episode to hear the wild thing I said on stage in front of her in order to get her attention. Oh boy did I get it. Don’t miss this episode of The Kim Gravel Show.
