Welcome to Season 2 of Hard Turn, the show that explores life's most challenging moments and the incredible human spirit that gets us through them. In our season premiere, hosts Mary Nam and Kelly Koopmans sit down with their first guest, Brent Beardall, the CEO of WaFd Bank.

Brent shares his deeply personal and emotional story of surviving a harrowing plane crash that left him severely injured and changed his life in an instant. This conversation goes beyond a story of survival, delving into how this "hard turn" reshaped his perspective on life, his relationships, and his leadership style. It’s a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a poignant reminder that vulnerability can be a source of incredible strength.
