In this inspiring episode of Going Rogue, Angie Manson sits down with keynote speaker, musician, and blind Air Force veteran Kijuan “Key” Amey to explore what it means to overcome life’s most devastating setbacks—and come back stronger, wiser, and more purpose-driven than ever.

After a devastating motorcycle accident left him blind and battling through months of surgeries and recovery, Key shares how his military mindset, spiritual foundation, and unwavering determination helped him rebuild his life. Angie and Key talk candidly about trauma, depression, suicidal thoughts, and the power of sharing your story as a way to heal—not just yourself, but others.

Key reflects on how he turned his “why me?” into “why not me?” and how losing his vision gave him what he calls a “superpower”—the ability to connect deeply through words, music, and emotion. From speaking in front of thousands to learning piano by ear, Key’s story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the magic that happens when we trust the process, lean into purpose, and speak from the heart.

💥 Topics covered:

• Mental resilience from military training
• Processing trauma and finding support
• The power of faith and divine guidance
• Discovering your “superpowers” after loss
• Speaking and performing as a blind artist
• Music therapy and spiritual healing
• Why adversity can be your greatest teacher
