What happens when you step back into something you once loved… years later?
In this episode of the We’re Not Stumped podcast, Mike Bolland shares the story behind his bowling comeback — from being the first person with limb loss to compete on the PBA Tour to stepping back onto the lanes with a new purpose.
But this isn’t just about bowling.
It’s about rediscovering confidence, overcoming fear, finding purpose again, and proving that it’s never too late to chase something meaningful.
Whether you’re an athlete, someone facing adversity, or simply trying to find your way back to something you once loved — this episode is for you.
