Now, after 26 years of falling, fighting, driving, escaping and surviving on camera, she’s also building a second career as an adventure photographer. In this episode of Goals Do Come True, Doug talks to stuntwoman and photographer Dailyn Matthews about survival, reinvention, creativity, AI, motherhood, goal-setting, and what it really takes to keep going when life forces you to start again.
