The Psychic Within with Carrie Cardozo

One Man’s Tragedy Leads to a Life of Inspire - Interview with Eric Patrick Thomas - The Carrie Cardozo Podcast - Episode 57

74 min • 11 februari 2021

No matter who you are or what you do, there will come a point in life where you’re going to face a hardship. A tragedy might strike. A loss occurs. Financial devastation happens. Even something as small as feeling like you’re on the wrong path.

Each person in life has their own journey and things to face. It’s up to that person to make a choice as to what they do after.

One of my passions is to meet and speak with people who have overcome amazing things in life and continued on. Eric is one of those people.

In this episode of The Carrie Cardozo Podcast I speak with a man I now call a friend, Eric Patrick Thomas who suffered a spinal cord injury in 1997 just when his life was all coming perfectly together.

In this episode Eric shares with us what happened that night and how he continued to move forward and not just to live life, but to build business and speak around the country to continue to inspire others.

Eric Patrick Thomas (a.k.a. Mr. inspire) is a Flint, MI, native and entrepreneur who is passionate about changing the way people view disabilities. This passion came after a fateful night in 1997, in which Eric suffered a spinal cord injury that paralyzed him from the neck down. Throughout this journey Eric uses his experience to empower resilience and inspire change for people with barriers.

In addition to serving the community as a public speaker-both motivationally and at House and Senate hearings-Eric sits on several state boards as a voice for people with barriers, is an advocate for Self-Determination living, hip-hop artist, D-MAN ambassador and is the founder of inspire® brand clothing.  Eric is also the proud owner of EZ Awareness By Design, a business specializing in graphic design for custom apparel, signs, and banners which offers on-the-job experience to people of all abilities.

Eric is truly an inspiration and his story will truly inspire you and get you looking at your life a little different.
