Surviving Flight 811: Shari Peterson's Tale of Faith and Resilience

There was divine intervention because there's no way.
Picture this: you're on a seemingly ordinary flight, when suddenly, chaos erupts. This was the reality for Shari Peterson on February 24, 1989, aboard United Flight 811 from Honolulu to Auckland. In this gripping episode of The Funky Brain Business Podcast, host Dennis Berry sits down with Shari to discuss her book 'The View from 13F: One Woman's Story of Surviving Flight 811'.
The flight took a terrifying turn when an explosion tore a massive hole in the plane, thrusting Shari and her fellow passengers into a nightmare scenario. Through the pandemonium, Shari experienced unexpected moments of calm and clarity, which she attributes to divine intervention. Her story is a testament to the human spirit's resilience and the power of faith in dire circumstances. After surviving the ordeal, Shari faced the daunting task of processing her trauma.
It took years for her to piece together the events of that fateful night. Writing her book became a therapeutic journey, helping her find closure and peace. This episode delves into Shari's emotional journey from chaos to clarity, and how she transformed her harrowing experience into a story of hope and strength. Tune in to hear Shari's incredible story and discover how faith and writing helped her heal.
