Episode Description
Program host Chris Meek speaks with inspirational speaker, author, coach and advocate Jennifer Tracy on this installment of Next Steps Forward. Jennifer experienced tragedy at the age of 29 when her husband and one of her daughters were killed in a drunk driving accident and will discuss how she was able, with God’s help, to put her experience into perspective to use the skills she already had to face life head on. She will detail what it means to “lose the battle, win the war,” the idea that if we are focused on the war we each wage in life than it doesn’t matter what we go through because we can find solitude in knowing that the overall war is winnable and we will indeed win it. Jennifer’s work has impacted countless thousands and her belief that it takes courage to be vulnerable is a sentiment that most everyone can relate to. For those looking for inspiration to forge ahead in life despite their life-altering experiences and circumstances, listening to Jennifer’s story and wisdom is a fantastic place to start. The audience will fall in love with Jennifer’s positive demeanor and approach, which encompasses the mind, body and spirit, to spark change in the lives of others

Chris Meek believes in the American spirit of individual empowerment and service to others, especially those who have sacrificed for our freedoms. As someone who lived through the horrors of Ground Zero on 9/11, Chris had no way home but to join others as they put one foot in front of the other to make their way forward. Since that day, Chris has committed himself to empowering and motivating fellow Americans to keep taking steps forward, no matter what life throws their way.
Chris has spent the last decade serving as the co-founder and chairman of the national nonprofit SoldierStrong, which is dedicated to helping military veterans take their next steps forward. SoldierStrong carries out its mission by providing revolutionary medical technology to VA medical centers, including exoskeleton suits to help paralyzed veterans walk again and virtual reality equipment to help treat post-traumatic stress.
He also serves as an advisor on the President’s Roadmap to Empower Veterans and End a National Tragedy of Suicide (PREVENTS) task force. In this role, he shares a responsibility to raise awareness about mental health, facilitate research and define a plan to prevent suicide. In 2020, Chris launched ReachStrong, a nonprofit aimed at empowering all Americans to care for their overall well-being. Chris is also a financial services executive at S and P Global, Inc, in New York City. He and his wife, Christine, have three children.
