Walks the talk

The Living Adaptive podcast is special! As a person with a disability, I am very careful to use that word! Many podcast that are on ITunes are for entertainment purposes and that is great! Each guest that Scott has brings an entertainment value with their story but is also informative and motivating! Everyone who has doubts about what people can do with a disability should listen to this because Scott has guests ifit zthat adapt and prove what is possible! As well as Scott himself! Participating in Spartan races and OCR’s!
