This month’s theme is Resilience. Our guest is Johnboy Smith, Paralympic Athlete, UK No.1 and Commonwealth Games Silver Medallist in the Wheelchair Marathon. In ‘The Beginning’ section, he talks about growing up running around with a dog and a pocket-knife in rural Kent, until a chance encounter forced him to survive the unthinkable… In ‘The Battlefield of the Mind’, he talks about what gave him the strength to keep going after his spinal injury. In ‘The Mountaintop’, he talks about everything from, feeling completely worthless, to finding his purpose and the success that came along the way… In ‘The Things I Wish I’d Known’, he gives us advice about overcoming setbacks and why the bad days are the days that really matter. In this ‘Bonus’ episode Johnboy tells us how a bad choice led him to a second near death experience and a special new season in his life…
