At the age of 40, Eric Wilson has just taken one giant step toward achieving his dream. He’s now enrolled in his first year of medical school at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine.
It’s the last place many people expected him to be, including himself.
Find out how he’s evolved from a college dropout, to “flopping around” from job to job, to enlisting in the Army and becoming an Army chaplain’s assistant on the frontlines of the war in Iraq, to his current life: a husband, father of two and first-year med student.
His story will inspire anyone who has struggled to survive their own short-fallings and find his or her place in the world. Eric explains how resetting his life to zero helped him work toward his goals.
