At 20 years old, Hal Elrod was hit by a drunk driver head-on at 70 mph. The impact shattered 11 bones in his body, and he was clinically dead for six minutes before being resuscitated. When Hal awoke from a six-day coma, he was told he had permanent brain damage and that he would never walk again.
Three weeks later, Hal took his first steps.
In 2008, he ran a 52-mile ultra-marathon.
That same year, as the global economic crisis escalated, Hal lost half his clients, went bankrupt, and lost his home.
In the midst of this, Hal was inspired to write The Miracle Morning, a book that has sold millions of copies, been adapted into a feature-length documentary, and helped people all over the world transform their lives simply by changing their morning routine.
In 2016, at age 37, Hal was diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia and given a 30% chance of survival. He decided he was going to be in the “30% survivors club.” And he did it.
Today, Hal is the author of 12 books, a keynote speaker, and a devoted husband and father of two children.
Hal has taken the lessons he learned from the most difficult seasons of his life and used them to help millions of people triumph over adversity. I hope this conversation blesses you as much as it did me.
This conversation was a blast. Hal’s survival story, resilience, and practical advice on success and creating a Miracle Morning routine are pure gold. Enjoy!
