Summary
My guest today is big wave surfer world Champion, Dad, Husband, and survivor of a near fatal accident last year Billy Kemper. We talk about coming back from an injury, taking on step kids in his early twenties, now having 4 sons, losing his brother when he was a child and how marrying his wife Tahiti inspired him to be his best in all buckets of life. As always we talk about being human, but this time through the lense of Billy Kempers path. He has crammed in a lot in a very short period of time.
Enjoy.
