Skating Through Life's Lessons with Samantha Lewis

What if the thing you begged for as a kid was never what you truly needed? In this episode of People of Distinction, we welcome Samantha Lewis to discuss her book I Want My Darn Skates (3rd edition), available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and the deeper story behind its unforgettable title. Samantha shares growing up poor in Birmingham, her complicated family background, joining the U.S. Air Force and the hardships that led her to write after feeling God tell her it would “make a great story.” She explains how faith and the Bible helped her endure and hopes readers finish the book with a simple message: treat others the way you want to be treated.
