Rick Hansen: The Power of Hope and Mindfulness
Manage episode 323149696 series 3328902
Thirty-five years ago, Rick Hansen wheeled his way around the world, covering 40,000 kilometres through 34 countries. The Man in Motion continues to inspire people every day with his outlook on life, his optimism, and his gratitude. In this episode of the Digging Deep podcast, Rick tells us how that optimism helped him move forward after he was paralyzed from the waist down at the age of 15. He also talks about how much of the stress and anxiety that holds us back comes from within, and how if we stop looking at loss and disability, then we can start looking at the future through the lens of hope and possibilities. Rick shares the milestones he wants to see when it comes to inclusivity for those living with disabilities, and what he believes will happen in the near future -- perhaps with the help of one of the world’s richest men. And he explains why he thinks a stickman in a wheelchair should not be the symbol of accessibility.
