Living an Expanded Life Through Entering the World of Disability, Focusing on Adventure, Love and Gratitude with JORGE FONT

It's our Spring Break week, so today we are re-releasing an episode we had last spring with the incredibly inspiring Jorge Font. At 19-years-old Jorge was in a waterskiing accident and became a paraplegic. In this conversation Jorge shares his journey since then including challenges, lessons learned, and how ultimately his life has expanded in ways he is grateful for.   

 

This is a such an uplifting conversation and we're so grateful Jorge took the time to talk with us and share his experiences and perspectives! We're so happy we can reshare this so our newer listeners have a chance to hear Jorge's story and the rest of us can have a chance to listen again.

 

Jorge is a husband, father, author, speaker, the Director of Institutional Philosophy at the Telethon Foundation, and the Director of Meaning and Human Development in Nice. He has given a TedX talk Life In Earthquake Mode and published a book Ensanchar la vida (Expanded Life) found here on Amazon. 

 

Thank you again, Jorge, for coming on Beautiful Shifts and sharing with us!
