In this powerful episode of We’re Not Stumped, Mike sits down with Lindsay Hicks to share her courageous decision to choose amputation at age 22 — and the emotional and physical challenges that followed.
Lindsay opens up about navigating identity after limb loss, the support of her parents, and the mindset that helped her move forward. She shares how setting a goal to walk unassisted by Christmas gave her focus during recovery and how resilience continues to shape her life today.
🧡 If Lindsay’s story resonates with you…
One way to support others navigating limb loss is by sharing your prosthetic care experience at EnableReview.com. We’re building a review platform powered by lived experience — because no one should have to choose a provider blindly.
The conversation also explores her prosthetic journey, serious medical complications including liver failure and infection, and the determination that helped her regain mobility after two years on crutches.
Now a support group leader and founder of Liberty Health, a nonprofit helping people afford prosthetics and orthotics, Lindsay is turning her experience into impact.
This episode is about courage, community, and choosing purpose — even in life’s hardest moments.
