Niki Spino’s life changed forever following a devasting car crash. Her story reveals determination’s role in healing our bodies—and our minds.
Niki Spino was a promising young Mixed Martial Arts fighter—in the best physical shape of her life—when she crashed head-on into an 18-wheeler on her way home from work. That accident would change life as she knew it forever.
