Episode description

At just 22 years of age, Sam Tait left for a morning ride with mates. By the afternoon, he'd broken his T11 vertebrae in a motorcycle accident that rendered him a paraplegic from the waist down. 

During this episode, Sam & I connected on the power of a quote that has defined his life since that harrowing accident on the 27th of April 2013. 'Sometimes when you're in a dark place, you think you've been buried but actually you've been planted'. It is that quote, that message that defines Sam's actions in the wake of the accident. He has chosen not to be a victim of his circumstances but rather to form new purpose & live life to the fullest.

We discuss:

- Allowing yourself to grieve.

- Acceptance of self & the power of embracing your authenticity.

- Forming new purpose in the wake of life altering events.

- Sam's Paralympic goals.

- The power of love.

- How to respect people with disabilities.

This was such a powerful conversation & whilst Sam & I have lived very different lives, we connected deeply on our thoughts & feelings towards our life purpose.
