Over the years, I’ve been asked a lot of questions—some serious, some funny, and some I’ve heard more times than I can count.
In this solo episode of the We’re Not Stumped Podcast, I’m answering five of the questions I get asked a lot.
Do I wear a prosthesis? How do I bowl with one hand? Have I always had a positive attitude? Do people still stare? And what keeps me motivated?
I’ll share some stories from growing up with a limb difference, becoming the first person with limb loss to compete on the PBA Tour, overcoming cancer, and why I’ve learned that attitude isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you choose every day.
Along the way, we’ll talk about curiosity, humor, resilience, and making the most of the opportunities life gives us.
In this episode, I answer:
- Do you wear a prosthesis?
- How do you bowl with one hand?
- Have you always had a good attitude?
- Do people still stare?
- What keeps you motivated?
Thanks for listening to the We’re Not Stumped Podcast. I hope this episode gives you a few laughs, a little perspective, and maybe answers a question you’ve always wondered about.
Have a stump and a smile! 🎙️
