Maintaining Positivity Through Tragedy with Motivational Speaker & Former Ole Miss Football Player KD Hill

Maintaining Positivity Through Tragedy with Motivational Speaker & Former Ole Miss Football Player KD Hill

KD Hill was a football player at Ole Miss and getting ready for the NFL Draft, destined to play with a pro football team. But in an instant, this reality shifted dramatically. KD’s life changed when he got in a car accident that severely injured his leg, and eventually had to get the leg amputated. To most people, this would be seen as a curse and would be stuck asking God, “why me?” But not KD. 

KD has the most optimistic attitude for someone that is in his position. In fact, he said he’s even thankful that it happened, because it showed him that God has other plans for him besides football. But today we get to talk about his life, his path to get to where he is, and what he plans to do now as a motivational figure and someone that portrays Christ in everything he does!

Listen as we discuss:

  • KD's testimony as an athlete and his mindset through tragedy
  • Trusting in God's plan over your plan
  • Advise on never quitting and maintaining courage
  • What he would tell his younger self to prepare for what was ahead
  • If his outlook on life has shifted at all
