Description

Eva wanted to take a break from the Pandemic-related content for the week, and share an incredibly touching story that has recently resurfaced.  It’s the story of Natalie Gilbert, who in 1993 at the age of 13, forgot the lyrics of the National Anthem in front of 20,000 fans at a NBA playoff game.  The biggest moment of Natalie’s life quickly became the most terrifying.  The whole stadium went silent -- yet one man, Maurice Cheeks, came to Natalie’s rescue and exhibited an act of kindness that forever changed Natalie’s life.   What’s even more remarkable is how Natalie did not let a performer's worst nightmare destroy her dream, and thanks to Maurice Cheeks she even now describes the experience as “perfect.”  We are thrilled to share this feel-good story of kindness during these challenging times.  We also encourage you to watch the full news segment, which we linked to in the show notes at DreamBigPodcast.com/198
