Description
Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
What happens when a terrifying experience becomes the story that changes your life?
In this gripping episode of Peek Inside, host Lyanne Richardson sits down with bestselling author Scott Wells to explore survival, fear, trauma, creativity, and the extraordinary real-life experiences behind Phantom Ranch. Scott shares how a Christmas backpacking trip into the Grand Canyon became a fight for survival—and how confronting painful memories eventually helped him transform trauma into storytelling, purpose, and inspiration.
The conversation also explores survivor’s guilt, rebuilding after homelessness, finding creativity again, helping others speak about difficult experiences, and refusing to let the past control the future.
