About The Book

Broken to Unbreakable

A true story of resilience, reinvention, and what happens when the dream you buried refuses to die. At sixteen, Lori Vollkommer’s life changed in a single moment. A catastrophic fall from the uneven bars fractured her spine, ending her gymnastics career.

Decades later, another spinal fracture sparked something unexpected: a return. What she found was joy reborn, purpose rediscovered, and proof that passion never expires.

The comeback is yours to claim. You’re never too old — and it’s never too late.
