Leanne Taylor: More than Medals

In 2018, at age 25, I was paralyzed from the waist down in a bicycle accident. Six years later, I became a Paralympic bronze medalist in paratriathlon. 

More than Medals was born from a desire to share with the world, the lessons that my friends in the parasport community have taught me. Here we offer listeners the opportunity to get to know some of my favourite humans, who also happen to be Paralympic Champions, World Champions, World Record holders and disability advocates. 

Give us a listen to hear guests like Jessica Tuomela laugh about her short-lived baseball career as a blind kid growing up in rural Ontario. get dating tips from Paralympic Champion Austin Smeenk as he discusses finding confidence as he grew up with hereditary spastic paraplegia, or listen to Paralympic champion Lauren Parker, who reminds us that no matter how successful a person may appear, we all have our challenges to face. 

I hope you love More than Medals a much as I loved making it.
