It would have been so easy for Chelsie Hill to give up or to play the blame game after a devastating car accident with a drunk driver left her paralyzed from the waist down. Instead of quitting, though, she pursued her dream of becoming a professional dancer in LA and even started a successful dance team made up entirely of wheelchair-bound dancers.
On this episode of Women of Impact with Lisa Bilyeu, Chelsie Hill describes struggling to embrace her differences, talks about developing her purpose, and explains why you need to surround yourself with people who want to see you fulfill your dreams.
