Episode Summary

Roberta Crisler survived a traumatic brain injury, coma, and shattered body — and somehow came back stronger, more joyful, and more faith-filled than ever. Her story is a beautiful reminder that healing isn’t linear, but with God, it’s always possible.

Episode Notes

At just 24 years old, Roberta Crisler’s life was shattered by a devastating car accident that left her in a coma, her brain severely injured, and her body barely functioning. Doctors weren’t sure she’d survive — much less walk, talk, or live independently again.

In this episode, Roberta shares the winding road of her recovery: the humor, the heartbreak, the rehabilitation, and the joy of reclaiming life one pedal stroke at a time. She opens up about the spiritual questions, emotional healing, and the faith that anchored her when everything else fell away. Her story will challenge your excuses and reignite your hope.
