In 2012, while living in Australia, Korrin was rushed into hospital after mismanagement of a medical condition led to emergency surgery and admission to the intensive care unit for an undetected bowel perforation.
This vivacious, fit, and healthy 33-year-old, with everything to live for, was put into an induced coma and given a 5% chance of survival! Sepsis and multiple organ failure led to an induced coma.
Nine days later, when Korrin miraculously awoke from the coma, she received the devastating news that to save her life, both her legs and hands would have to be amputated.
Korrin learned not only to get back up but to live her life unlimited!
After undergoing more than 25 surgeries, spending months in hospital, and learning to live life as a quadruple amputee, Korrin knows what it means to get back up.
Korrin’s story and experiences hold real power. She has dedicated her life to empowering others and helping people find their absolute potential. With the ability to engage with her audience and tap into their deepest dreams, their desires as well as fears, and worries, Korrin pushes people to take action and truly inspires change.
