Oksana Masters: 17-Time Paralympic Medalist

This week on the In Depth Podcast, Graham sits down with the inspirational Oksana Masters. The multisport athlete has won 17 medals across the summer and winter Paralympic games, and is the most decorated U.S. Winter Paralympian of all time. But that’s not even the biggest aspect of her story. Oksana discusses her upbringing in a hellacious Ukrainian orphanage where she endured numerous horrors. Oksana also details a childhood overcoming numerous birth defects due to radiation poisoning from the Chernobyl meltdown, which resulted in numerous surgeries, including amputations of both legs. But Masters also reveals the love she’s experienced in her life from her adoptive mother and fiance, and talks about what it takes to succeed no matter how much the odds are stacked against you.
