Kalksma, Sally: - Life Gets in the Way tells the story of Sally Kalksma, a professional stair climber, motivational speaker, writer, and video talk show host-none of which she planned to be.

Sally has overcome an amazing amount of adversity, but this is not a book about overcoming adversity. This is a book about developing grit, about finding inspiration in the obstacles-and joy in overcoming them. You can too!
