Join Sam as she introduces this week's Inspired Woman, THE Unstoppable Tracy Shmitt. In this soul-warming conversation, Tracy reflects on her mother enrolling her in kindergarten, the principal refused to let her enter the school for fear she would become dependent on the teacher. But after her mother convinced the principal to let her enroll for a week, she helped all the other students tie their shoelaces for recess! Discover her 'why' behind turning 'NO into KNOW' and how she became not just 'Tracy' but 'Unstoppable Tracy', a story that has special meaning as she readies herself for one of her biggest challenges to date... Competing at the Hansa Class World Championships in Australia. This is more than a personal goal—it’s a mission to showcase what’s possible for people of all abilities.

Her story is quite literally, mind-blowing and I just KNOW this is the dose of inspiration we all need today because everything and everyone she touches is transformed. When I first heard her speak she received a standing ovation because she literally pushed our audience out of our limitation zones.
