Inspiring Others
KEVIN SORBO
Actor, Author, Stroke Survivor
 
In the words of Christopher Reeve, “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”  Kevin Sorbo certainly exemplifies this statement.  Though he played the hero Hercules on TV, he is a real-life hero as well, having overcome a series of debilitating strokes that left him barely able to walk and partially blind.  Now fully recovered, the challenges he has faced have shaped him in ways he did not expect.  Kevin shared with the IDN Summit attendees insights on how his patient experience changed his perspective.   His candor, wit and storytelling skills resulted in a moving and powerful message about discovering and appreciating the real measures of success.  Read Kevin's full bio here.
