Join author Jo Giese for an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation at the Glickman Conference Center on the campus of University of Texas at Austin.

In discussion with Alex Vaughn, Jo will explore the powerful journey behind her memoir, You’ll Never Walk Alone — from a life-altering injury and daunting diagnosis to resilience, recovery, and reclaiming her path forward. Her story offers a compelling perspective on perseverance, purpose, and the strength found through community and self-belief.

This event invites students, faculty, and the broader community to engage in an uplifting dialogue about overcoming adversity and redefining what’s possible. A Q&A and book signing will follow the conversation.
