Bethany Hamilton shark attack survivor story: her dad gave his daughter a way back into the ocean
🏄 Bethany Hamilton | Surfing | Professional Surfer • World Surf League winner
After the shark attack, Bethany told her mom she was going to surf again.
Her father believed her. So he went into his garage and built a rubber handle for the front of her surfboard, making it possible for her to paddle with one arm.
Bethany was back in the water just 26 days later.
Her parents didn’t build resilience after the attack. They’d been building it since she was two years old.
⁉️ Are you preparing your child for success or helping them become the kind of person who can rebuild after setbacks? ⁉️
👩🔬 I spent years decoding what 100 elite athlete parents actually did. The uncomfortable truth about how athletes get made.
🏘️🌴 It takes a strategic village to raise an athlete. This is your village. 🥇
