    About the episode.
    Jordan was born with a deformed right leg, so he’s worn a prosthetic leg since he was 18 months old. Instead of letting his disability weigh him down, he channeled it as motivation to reach the peak in all his 4 careers including winning the European championship with the GB Wheelchair basketball team, DJing at the biggest events in Europe, covering major sport events like the 2018 World Cup as a journalist and right now running his own production company. The one skill that he says is the reason for his accomplishments is his confidence. In this episode we break down how you can build unstoppable confidence
