Episode 9 with Nathan Ford

Episode 9 with Nathan Ford

Nathan's story is nothing short of miraculous, actually miraculous is doing him an injustice.

This is the power of the human spirit in it's rawest form.
A horrific accident during a triathlon in Scotland in 2021, where he spent over a week in a coma, then upon waking up being told his spinal injury would almost certainly have him spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

Before the accident Nathan was an very accomplished swimmer and naturally moved on to compete in distance events, mostly triathlons and ironman finishing 1st in his age group and 8th overall in the brutal Ironman Wales in 2019.

Since the accident he has proved pretty much every consultant and surgeon wrong, he has risen to the insurmountable challenges that faced him, learning to breathe again unaided, talk, move, everything we take for granted.

There are a very small number of people on this planet that are put here to show everyone else what self belief actually looks like

Nathan is one of those

Listen, be inspired and get ready to dust of the running shoes to join him when he does what he says he's going to do during our conversation
