Ep. 172 Your Ability Is Not Limited By Your Disability, with Ryley Batt

Ryley Batt is the Australian Wheelchair Rugby team captain and arguably the World's Best Wheelchair Rugby player. He's won 2 Gold and 1 silver medal at 5 Paralympic Games.

This episode was recorded recently when Riley was spending 2 weeks locked in a hotel room in Sydney, doing his time in Quarantine after returning from the Tokyo Paralympics.

In this episode we discuss:

• The mindsets of winning and losing
• The mental challenges of preparing for a Paralympics during the global pandemic
• The mental challenges of returning to quarantine after the Paralympics and not achieving the results they wanted.
• How his upbringing set him up for success from a young age.
• Why he refused a wheelchair for the first 12 years of his life and chose to use a skateboard as transport instead.
• And much more about his life and sport and different things we can draw inspiration from.
