Lindy Boone is the second of four daughters to legendary singer and entertainer Pat Boone and Shirley (Foley) Boone. She has worked in the fitness industry as a group fitness instructor and personal trainer for 25 years. She currently resides in Southern California with her husband of 38 years, attorney Mike Michaelis. She has three adult children: Ryan, Jessica, and Tyler. In 2001, her son Ryan Corbin stepped through a skylight and fell three stories onto a cement floor. Because of this, he had TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and was expected not to survive. However, through the miracle of faith and prayers, Ryan did survive, and Lindy uses her platform to speak on TBI. Since Ryan's fall, Boone has learned a great deal about traumatic brain injury and has come to a new understanding of the faithfulness of God and the power of our words during times of deepest needs. In 2003, the Boone family established a non-profit in Ryan’s name called Ryan’s Reach to help survivors of brain injury and their families and has been providing funds for TBI survivors to receive therapy ever since. The charity has also opened two homes to provide care exclusively for brain injury survivors.If you're enjoying this podcast, please consider supporting it for just $5 through www.buymeacoffee.com/amyz
