S2E8 Life Keeps Rolling with Nick Dempsey
Episode description
Candice chats with Nick Dempsey, a disability advocate, speaker, and content creator whose life took a turn after a diving accident on his 21st birthday left him with a spinal cord injury. Nick talks about life with a disability, dating, sexuality, and the ups and downs of finding independence again.
Life after injury doesn’t mean stopping, it just means doing things differently. These days, Nick’s adding marriage celebrant and model to his list of roles, while lending his voice to spinal research as an ambassador through the Perry Cross Foundation. He’s even designed an adaptive drinking glove to make everyday life easier!
Part two of this conversation is available on Nick’s own podcast, Chats From A Chair. Tune in there to catch the rest of the chat!
