Richard Whitehead MBE is one of Britain's most inspirational Paralympians. Born with a rare condition that led to the amputation of both legs as a child, Richard refused to let disability define his future. Instead, he became a multiple Paralympic and World Champion, breaking world records and inspiring millions with his relentless determination.

In this episode, Richard shares the reality behind elite sport, the setbacks that shaped him, and the mindset required to compete at the very highest level. From learning to walk with prosthetics to standing on top of the Paralympic podium, he opens up about resilience, identity, overcoming adversity, and why limitations are often only the ones we place on ourselves.

This is an honest conversation about grit, purpose, mental strength, and what it truly means to keep moving forward when life changes forever.
