Jana helps us become the best version of ourselves, and Jana is an expert in life transitions.
Change is a constant in life.
There are 3 main reasons we go through a catalytic transition: Shock, Opportunity, and Growth.
Jana has experienced all three of these reasons at very profound levels.
At age 15…
Jana was paralyzed in an automobile accident. This was a “shock” transition that completely transformed her reality.
Her second transition was “Opportunity”, retiring from competitive wheelchair sports at the age of 29. She won the gold medal and was ready to move on to a different phase of her life which included the stability of a relationship and a career; but it was still a complete transformation and rebirth of identity.
The third transition has been the most challenging, because it was born from within. She truly felt a human metamorphosis, or a “Growth” of a new version of herself. Jana quit her job because she felt an inner voice telling her “there was something bigger and better.” This was not an easy move, but one she is grateful for.

Jana’s Radical Gratitude
An ambassador for Chair the Love, she has traveled the world with the non-profit organization that has shared the gift of mobility with thousands around the globe.
Today, Jana is living lucky by inspiring, education, and coaching audiences and clients around the world on how to conquer life's biggest limitations: our thoughts and beliefs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
