In this episode of We’re Not Stumped, we share powerful stories of resilience, generosity, and community support for individuals with disabilities.
First, we discuss the heartwarming story of Jeanette Ingram, Oklahoma woman amputee, who narrowly escaped a fire but lost her electric wheelchair in the process. Thanks to Stacy Reddig’s incredible generosity, she received a brand-new wheelchair, restoring her mobility and independence.
Next, we highlight the heroic efforts of Ohio police officers who went above and beyond to rescue a double-amputee Army veteran stranded on an icy sidewalk. Facing freezing temperatures and the dangers of hypothermia, he was unable to move his wheelchair through the treacherous conditions. Thanks to the officers’ quick actions, he was brought to safety—an inspiring reminder of the importance of community and compassion.
Finally, we shine a spotlight on Turnstone, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering people with disabilities through adaptive sports, therapy, and advocacy. Their mission is to help individuals maximize their independence and live full, active lives. We explore how Turnstone’s programs make a meaningful difference and provide vital resources for the disability community.
These stories remind us of the power of kindness, resilience, and the importance of accessibility. Join us for an uplifting discussion on the ways individuals and organizations are making a real impact in the lives of people with disabilities.

In this powerful and reflective episode of We’re Not Stumped, host Mike Bolland welcomes Terry Tucker, author of Four Truths and a Lie, for a deep conversation about mindset, mental toughness, and what it truly means to live a significant life. Terry shares the philosophy behind his latest book, which challenges common definitions of success rooted in money, status, and material achievement. Instead, he invites listeners to rethink success through the lens of service, responsibility, and impact on others. At the heart of his message is one foundational truth: if you don’t control your mind, it will control you.
In this eye-opening episode of We’re Not Stumped, host Mike Bolland speaks with Dr. Kevin Lee, a vascular and interventional radiologist at Georgia Endovascular, about why so many amputations don’t have to happen. Dr. Lee explains how misdiagnosed or untreated peripheral artery disease (PAD) is one of the leading causes of limb loss—especially among veterans, older adults, and people living with diabetes. He shares how minimally invasive endovascular procedures can restore blood flow, reduce pain, and help patients avoid amputation when disease is caught early.
Tom Lenoble’s story is a powerful combination of leadership, resilience, and personal transformation. In this inspiring interview, Tom reflects on his remarkable career leading global customer operations for major brands like MCI, Walmart.com, Palm, and Facebook, where he helped build the company’s first customer operations organization during its explosive early growth. Beyond his Silicon Valley leadership achievements, Tom opens up about surviving two life-threatening illnesses, living with HIV, and battling metastatic cancer for 13 years while continuing to lead, inspire, and thrive. His bestselling memoir, My Life in Business Suits, Hospital Gowns, and High Heels, reveals the deeply human side of his journey — from corporate success to vulnerability, healing, and purpose.
