Tiffani Zeleny tells the story of having a severe case Acanthamoeba Keratitis (a parasite in the cornea). Acanthamoeba Keratitis is a rare but serious infection of the eye that can result in permanent visual impairment or blindness. After months of battling the parasite, she became eligible for and received a cornea transplant.

Even though she was very sick, and lost twenty pounds, she continued to go CrossFit classes on a scaled basis. And after 17 days of being cleared for all restrictions, she participated in the 2023 CrossFit Open. Her results were the best she has ever achieved (top 10% in the world for her age group) as she qualified for the quarterfinals for the CrossFit Games qualification.

Sam and Tiffany discuss her journey of faith, gratitude, and community as she received the gift of an organ.

Cowboys not Eggheads

Welcome to Cowboys not Eggheads where I visit with guests about topics like loyalty, honesty, authenticity, courage, integrity and resilience.

I come from a cowboy raised and egghead educated background. I’ve saddled and rode a horse, been on multiple cattle drives, fed cattle in 40 below temperatures, worked cattle in a corral, put up hay in 100 degree temperatures, fixed fence …. you name it …

I attended high school at a prestigious private school. I got a College degree.

I spent 31 years as a national political operative, owned my own business and spent 13 years as a police officer.

My interesting life has lead me to the conclusion that the world is made up of cowboys and eggheads. I believe that we should have a few more cowboys than eggheads. Get ready, because you’re about to be pulled into the story of my life……
