What if a retired prosthetic could be more than a memory?
What if it could become a knife that honors a veteran’s story… or fund a child’s new leg… or even help an amputee climb a 14,000-foot mountain?

In this inspiring episode, Rick Bontkowski sits down with Jason Dickens, founder of ReDefined Prosthetics, a nonprofit redefining what it means to give back to the limb-loss community.

Jason’s mission is simple but powerful: take old prosthetics and transform them into tools, art, and opportunities that continue the story of resilience. Through partnerships with makers, veterans, and amputees across the country, ReDefined Prosthetics funds pediatric prosthetic care, and hosts free events like the 14,000 Ft Peak Challenge..

This episode dives deep into creativity, advocacy, and the kind of quiet strength that fuels real change. Whether you’re part of the amputee community or just someone searching for perspective, Jason’s message will move you.
