Nugget of Hope: "Be more open to trust."

Michael Hingson, blind since birth, was born in Chicago to sighted parents who believed in raising their son with a can-do attitude. Treated like all other children in his family, Michael rode a bike, did advanced math in his head, and learned to read and write – Braille, that is!

Michael Hingson’s life changed dramatically on September 11, 2001, when he and his guide dog, Roselle, escaped from the 78th floor of Tower One in the World Trade Center moments before it collapsed.

Michael wrote a book about his experience, Thunder Dog, which became a New York Times Best Seller, and soon after, Michael and Roselle were thrust into the international limelight, where Michael began to share his unique survival story and 9-11 lessons of trust, courage, heroism, and teamwork.

Michael is now the author of three books and hosts The Unstoppable Mindset Podcast.

The Roselle’s Dream Foundation

Roselle was Michael Hingson’s guide dog and trusted companion for many years. Her life and her heroic actions on 9/11 inspired the formation of The Roselle’s Dream Foundation. The mission of the foundation is to assist the blind with obtaining new technologies, empowering them to learn, to work, and to maximize their success in today’s challenging world.

Tamera Norwood is a children's author, librarian, and a former retail real estate executive.

When others might have been planning retirement, Tamera reinvented her life to follow an old passion: writing.

Through studies in Mindfulness and the ethics of yoga, she overcame imposter syndrome and the fear that publication had long passed her by.

Her first book, a children’s book titled There’s Good All Around, is a gentle book for rough times. It reminds the young reader that even when times are hard, there is still good to be found all around us.

Tamera’s book was released in 2021 after she turned 60, and announcements for more launch dates are coming soon.

As soon as she learned to read, she wrote and illustrated stories for her family.

She wanted to be a writer, a ballerina, an artist, and a librarian. Two of those things came true!

When she’s not dreaming up stories for young people, you’ll find her working in libraries, practicing yoga, reading outdoors, and loving on her two cats and a dog.
