Real People, Real Resilience: Look Up Hits the Airwaves and the Heartland

📺 A Month in the Media Spotlight

It’s been a whirlwind month for Look Up—Global Stories of Resilience. From Nashville to Wisconsin, the stories in the book—and the message behind them—have reached thousands through four powerful TV interviews.

Each conversation was a chance to amplify resilience, share glimpses into the courageous contributors’ journeys, and remind viewers that healing, strength, and perspective are universal.

Here’s the highlight reel:

• CBS Channel 5 – Nashville: A deep dive into what it means to “Look Up” during life’s hardest moments.

• NBC Channel 4 – Nashville (WSMV): We talked post-traumatic growth, fresh starts, and how everyone can tap into their resilience reflex.

• CBS Channel 8 – La Crosse: Back to my Wisconsin roots where the journey began—full circle, full heart.

• ABC Channel 19 – La Crosse: Showcasing the importance of connection and community when talking about resilience.

Each interview reminded me how much this message matters—and how powerful real stories can be in helping others rewrite their own.

🤝 4 More Contributors, 1 Big Mission

While in Wisconsin, I had the absolute joy of meeting four more contributors in person. We hugged, laughed, reflected—and in many cases, it was our first time meeting outside the pages of the book.

With every handshake or hug, the power of connection became even more clear. These aren’t just stories. These are real lives, real scars, and real victories.

My goal? To eventually meet every single contributor. Some have already made their way to Nashville—and I hope many more will. There’s nothing like standing face-to-face with someone who trusted you with their story.
