Imagine finally being selected as a Castaway on Survivor after 18 auditions and realizing your experience was nothing like you'd hoped it would be. Gillian Larsen was 61 years old when she was cast on the show and she had a rough time fitting in on her season of Survivor Gabon, but she didn't let that stop her from using the experience to create a fundraising event (Reality Rally) that raised tons of money for Michele's Place, a cancer resource center.  Gillian has had such a beautiful and exciting life (and she shares it in great detail - you'll love it!) and she has learned to take the tough experiences in life and make good from them. We know you'll be inspired today as you hear her journey to, through and beyond the torch!To see the YouTube video about Jeff wanting to quit, check out this link!
