New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned speaker Amy Purdy shares 21 practical tools to help you not only survive life’s hardest moments but learn to heal, grow, and ultimately thrive.

When Amy Purdy was nineteen, a sudden and severe case of bacterial meningitis resulted in the loss of both legs below the knee and nearly took her life. Her dream of becoming a professional snowboarder seemed impossible until she transformed her grief and loss into fuel and rebuilt her life one tiny step at a time.

Amy not only became a trailblazer in her sport—she made history as a three-time Paralympic medalist. She went on to inspire millions around the world, tour with Oprah Winfrey, deliver unforgettable performances on Dancing with the Stars,and speak on some of the largest stages in the world.

Two decades later, after rebuilding her life and career, Amy faced a new battle. A sudden and devastating injury threatened her ability to walk again, and she began a profound journey of physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.

In Bounce Forward, Amy shares this raw and intimate chapter of her life, showing that true resilience is not about returning to who you once were but becoming someone stronger, wiser, and more whole. Through gripping stories, practical science, and soulful reflection, she introduces twenty-one actionable tools that helped her shift from:

· Grief to hope

· Helpless to empowered

· Limited to limitless

· Criticizing your body to celebrating it

· Giving up to finding your way

· And more . . .

Warm, practical, and profoundly healing, Bounce Forward is a guidebook for rebuilding after your most difficult moments that offers everyday practices for moving through adversity, reconnecting with your inner strength, and rising into a more fulfilling life.

This book is about the kind of courage you need when it would be easier to quit. Amy doesn’t just talk about moving forward—she shows you how to do it with honesty, heart, and grit.”
