Meet Rick Yarosh, a man with an extraordinary story of perseverance and a passion for helping others find hope in the face of adversity. A retired US Army sergeant, Rick served in Iraq for nine months before being severely injured in a devastating explosion in 2006.

“ Hope stands for: Hold on, possibilities exist. If you don't hold on, you're never going to find out the amazing possibilities that exist for you.”

“And I think too many times when we have something really awful that happens to us or we see it as really awful, we don't talk about it. And we got to talk about it. We got to become comfortable with it. Because what I know is I can't change what happened to me, but I can change how I look at it. And if I talk about it more, that helps me change how I look at what happened.”
