Kim Norvell: Living Fully w/ Cystic Fibrosis as a Football Bride (Jay Norvell - Colorado State University)

This is our 285th episode of the Catalyst 360 podcast, kicking off our 6th year without missing a single week, thanks to your support and encouragement. Guests have ranged from world class researchers and best-selling authors to some of the world’s greatest athletes and coaches. Today’s guest may be among the most inspiring – and informative – of all those who have come before her. In fact – she’s going to address a pair of significant topics for us in a single interview – two topics that may seem to be unrelated but in the end are a reminder of our common human condition. Welcome to the Catalyst 360 podcast. Today’s guest is Kim Norvell, who’s been battling Cystic Fibrosis for over 55 years, ever since her diagnosis at the age of 6 months. Those diagnosed with CF in the 60s weren’t expected to make it into 1st grade. Kim’s far exceeded the expectations not simply in number of years – but the impact of those years as well. Oh – and by the way, she’s been married to a top-tier college football coach, Colorado State University’s Jay Norvell, for 26 years. Football coaches at that level generally work 15 hour days and aren’t known for their health & wellness. Jay is the exception – and we’ll be tapping into some of his secrets on that front on the back half of our discussion.  Looking for weekly tips, tricks and turbo boosts to enhance your life?
