Fortitude
Everyone has a story of Fortitude! When we tell our stories of pain in adversity - stories of courage, redemption and hope - we give others permission to speak up and get the help they need. Each episode will give the listener a look inside what overcoming adversity looks like no matter what life throws at you. Each story is uniquely different - stories of alcoholism/addiction, infidelity, rape, abuse, loss of a child/children, cancer, rare disease, tragic accidents...etc.! We are in this life together to support one another and build community around hope and redemption. I am your host, Heather Kittelson, and I am so excited to have you here as part of the Fortitude community!

#2: Tim Schut - Rare Disease - Speechless
In June of 2021, Tim Schut learned he had developed Primary Progressive Apraxia of Speech (PPAOS), a rare neurodegenerative syndrome, which will rob him of his superpower: speech.
Tim's story is powerful, uplifting and one in a million...just like his diagnosis.
In this episode you will hear Tim talk in depth about his disease, his supportive & loving family and his desires to live the rest of his time here on earth making memories with those he loves most.
