Entertainment - Perth, Western Australia, Australia
I was born missing my right leg above the knee, and growing up people told me that I would not be able to achieve my dreams of becoming a stellar athlete. I could have let my limitations define me and used my disability as an excuse not to try. However, I don't believe in excuses. I learned how to change my way of thinking. I did not give up and instead kept striving, eventually becoming a Paralympian and world record-holding triathlete.It was not enough to simply work hard. I had to change my whole mindset and learn how to set goals and overcome the obstacles that got in the way of achieving them. I had to learn how to stop accepting excuses from myself and those around me. Through my talks and keynote speeches, I have inspired countless others to use my strategies and face their own challenges with grit and determination.I have delivered talks around the world to corporate clients, youth groups and fellow athletes. My talks are enthusiastically received, and I have been rated as the top motivational speaker at the majority of events where I've presented. Listeners have found my talks to be engaging, relatable and inspiring. I share both my successes and failures with a mix of openness, humility and humour. My life story and tools for success connect with audiences and leave them feeling that they too can take control of their lives. I show them that the difficulties life throws at you can be conquered, all it takes is resilience and the right attitude.
