Brace for impact. Your comeback starts now.

We all will face a monster storm at some point in our lives. In 2024, Jim Olson's beautiful life and high-flying career rolled into a perilous nosedive with a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis and the loss of his sight. Jim was terrified his life was over.

Then he recalled the Aviate-Navigate-Communicate protocol Captain Sully Sullenberger followed to safely land US Airways Flight 1549 on New York's Hudson River. At the time, Jim was VP of Communications at the airline. By embracing this crisis management mindset, Jim slayed his cancer and learned to thrive as a blind person.

Tailwind can turn your setback into your comeback by revealing how to:

Transform your paralyzing fear into purposeful action
Find the story in your storm to inspire and advocate for others
Build unshakeable resilience that allows you to thrive, not just survive
Lead with authenticity and purpose in a world hungry for connection and hope

Packed with unforgettable stories, infectious inspiration, and actionable insights, Tailwind will help you become the resilient leader and purpose-driven person our world needs.

YOUR SETBACK DOESN'T MEAN YOUR JOURNEY IS OVER. MAKE IT YOUR TAILWIND.
