The Power of Accepting your Reality - Luzuko Sonkapu #Ep81 Coached Success Podcast
-
- Självhjälp
This week I speak with Luzuko, a 20 year old wheelchair bound young man who is passionate about eliminating the stigma attached to people with disabilities.
Luzuko has a rare condition, congenital myopathy, which causes his muscles to weaken, resulting in limited movement and respiratory problems. Luzuko is a RxRadio reporter as well as a Western Province player for the physical disabled sports.
During this episode we speak about what it is like being physically limited. Luzuko reflects on his childhood and his high school years. He points out that it was in high school when he really started to feel like he was different.
He speaks about the biggest challenges he faces, and points out that it is difficult to have a social life. He also highlights how he often feels uncomfortable going into public spaces with his wheel chair as people unintentionally stare. This only serves to remind him of the fact that he is different.
Luzuko is always trying to rise up and break the stigma attached to people like him. He has been doing this through producing music and being involved in RX radio.
Furthermore, Luzuko chats to us about mental health, cyberbullying and shares his antidote that stops him feeling sorry for himself.
This is an interesting and an inspiring conversation that should not be missed.
