Today’s special guest on the We’re Not Stumped podcast, Carrie Bono, is on a mission—a mission to uplift and motivate others through sharing her personal journey on her YouTube channel, “Where Did My Foot Go.”
Following a series of life-altering events, including a bike accident and diabetes, Carrie experienced the loss of her left leg below the knee. Rather than allowing this setback to hinder her, it ignited a new chapter in her life. Carrie is passionately committed to assisting not only fellow amputees but anyone in need of inspiration. She documents her remarkable journey on her YouTube channel and travels extensively to spread her story far and wide.
Her recent journey led her to the doorstep of host Mike Bolland, where they recorded this episode of the Limb Loss Podcast. Carrie and her husband Mike traveled all the way from Utah to the Phoenix area to share her insights and experiences.
