Hair question for the ladies. What are we doing these days?! What’s the updated version of this? Mind you I’m 45 so no cutsie knots etc plus I don’t have time 😆 literally posting this running out the door. I think I heard this half up - half down is for sure out of style. Ideas? | Amy Purdy

I’m doing it guys!! After 10 surgeries to save my leg and a fully collapsed Femoral artery today was the best day yet on both of my legs in 2 years!! 🙌🙌🙌 And it just makes me think how important it is to be in the present moment and to not compare ourselves to who we used to be or who we think we should be. If I compared myself to the Amy standing on Olympic podiums, snowboarding down mountains than I would never be satisfied, but to be on my own two feet again right here, right now is truly

I once heard, the most successful people are the ones that adapt the best! I've been trying to get a better leg workout, which has been tough with little ankle motion, So I put on my dance feet while weight training & it worked! They don't have heels, so I am forced to balance on the balls of my feet, working my quads & stabilizer muscles! Weight training in dance feet! Why not?! If there is a will, there is a way! #adaptandovercome #legday #noexcuses #workoutwednesday #livebeyondlimits #DWTS |

Look who’s already going home! This week has been surreal. Daniel’s surgeries were major, they opened his abdomen and his back and did a double fusion with spacers, plates and screws and yet, here he is walking out just 16 hours after his second surgery headed home. 🤯 He’s doing so well. We are so blessed for our unbelievable surgical team at the Steadman clinic , our hotel the Hythe Vail that is incredibly beautiful and accommodating, and always Toyota USA who’s been there with us through thic

I lost both of my legs when I was 19, rebuilt my life then was knocked off my feet again 6 years ago due to a severe injury. I have spent years of my life recovering, rebuilding and reinventing myself over and over again and if I have learned anything it’s to keep moving forward no matter what, no matter how small the steps are and no matter how long it takes. I share more of this story and tips on moving through adversity in my new book “Bounce Forward “ available for PreOrder today at the link

When I lost my legs, I was told I would never snowboard again. I’m so happy that I didn’t allow others limiting beliefs, limit my life. Let this be your reminder to write your own rules! Nothing is truth until you make it that way. Go after your dreams no matter how challenging the road to get there. Become an expert in the possibilities and your world will open up in ways you never could have imagined. ❤️ Amy | Amy Purdy

My leg injury knocked me completely off my legs for years. I’ve literally had to fight to walk for a second time in my life. And, I’m just grateful to find workouts that keep me strong even when I’m not fully back to myself yet. If there’s a will there is a way. Whatever challenge you’re facing keep going, keep trying, keep getting creative, keep putting in the work. You will get there. I promise you, every baby step forward is a step forward.

Losing both of my legs below the knees at 19 turned me into the person I am today. Here are 3 things it taught me. 1. A deep appreciation for my body and it’s resilience. The way it bounced back and even went on to be stronger than before makes me in awe of just how miraculous our bodies are. 2. Going on to be a successful athlete , speaker and entrepreneur I have learned that your circumstances don’t have to hold us back, when you get your mindset right your circumstances can actually propel yo

I know this sounds silly, but I haven’t wanted to wear a dress because with my injury sneakers are the only thing I can walk in right now and in the past I loved wearing heels and sandals with my dresses. So, my “plan” was to wear my dresses when I could wear the proper shoes with them. But, how freaking silly is that?! I’ve decided , I’m wearing the dress and the sneakers if they match or not and it just makes me think, how often do we stop ourselves from living because we are “waiting” for som

Here’s a simple mindset hack! Don’t focus on what you have lost or don’t have, focus on what you have in your life right here, right now. One of the biggest game changers for me when I lost my legs was I stopped using the language “I lost my legs” and I started using the language “ I have two prosthetic legs.” Doing this helped me focus on all the things I have in my life verses thinking of what was lacking. And to be honest , I never really felt I was lacking as these legs have taken me to amaz
