Today I’m excited to welcome Klyn Elsbury to The Quarter Life Comeback podcast.

Klyn Elsbury is an entrepreneur, author and speaker, but her story goes much deeper than that.

Growing up with Cystic Fibrosis, Klyn was given a life expectancy of 14 years. But that didn’t stop her from starting her own business. Then, after being forced to quit her career due to numerous hospitalizations, Klyn was confined to a wheelchair with her lung function plummeting below 40%.

After two weeks in hospital, she decided to set off on a six-week road trip across the United States to visit friends and family she wasn’t sure she would live to see again.

Klyn then started interviewing successful entrepreneurs and athletes to find out what set them apart from the rest of us. She subsequently turned her findings into a book, where she draws a parallel between what it means to live as if every day is your last and what it means to create a highly impactful legacy.
