Euphoric the Podcast


Apr 17, 2024

Shelby Perry was 10 months alcohol-free when a freak snowboarding accident caused her to lose her right eye. It would have been easy to let this enormous setback bring her down – but instead, she created something beautiful from it. 

In this episode, we dive deep into Shelby’s story, from her relationship with alcohol, to the day that changed EVERYTHING. 

And guess what sped up her recovery and healed her from a victim mindset? Community.

Using the tools she learned when she went alcohol-free, Shelby was not only able to recover and heal from this accident, but through perseverance, resilience, and strength, she found a deeper purpose of helping others. 

Today, she’s a motivational coach who has built a movement working with people who’ve had life-altering injuries.

Shelby is the perfect example of how dealing with adversity can be a stepping stone for awakening your purpose and turning that into a hunger for helping others.
