Having lived with a spinal cord injury since infancy, Hayley shares invaluable tips, strategies, and a positive mindset to enhance your school experience, from connecting with friends to fully enjoying your time at school.
Our second guest, David Deitz, is a highly regarded high school principal who is navigating his own return to the school environment after sustaining a spinal cord injury on the velodrome.
