  • Summary

  • This week, I’m sitting down with someone who has completely blown my mind — Hayley Arceneaux. You might know her as the youngest American to ever go to space and the first astronaut with a prosthetic limb. But what you may not know is that Hayley’s journey started as a childhood cancer patient at St. Jude, and today, she’s a physician assistant at the very same hospital that saved her life. We talk about everything from how Hayley processed the life-changing call inviting her to join SpaceX’s Inspiration4 mission, to what it was like going to space and coming back to Earth, and how she conquered her fears along the way. If you’re looking for inspiration to dream bigger or just want to know what it’s really like to be an astronaut, this episode is going to stick with you.
