131-FROM TRAGEDY TO TRIUMPH THE LIFE OF KIJUAN AMEY
From Tragedy to Triumph
This week’s guest is Kijuan Amey, the founder of Amey Motivation, whose story is a testament to resilience, purpose, and transformation. A proud Durham, NC native and U.S. Air Force veteran, Kijuan served as a Staff Sergeant and In-flight Refueling Specialist before a motorcycle accident in 2017 changed his life forever, costing him his eyesight but not his vision. Since then, he has become a dynamic motivational speaker, mentor for the Air Force Wounded Warriors, and a former VP of the Carolina Blinded Veterans Association. With over 25 years of experience as a drummer, stage actor, and now a soon-to-be bestselling author of “Don’t Focus on Why Me,” Kijuan continues to inspire audiences both large and small. His message is clear: obstacles don’t define us—our mindset does. Get ready to hear from a man who doesn't just speak motivation—he lives it.
