“Just because something hasn’t been done before, doesn’t mean you can’t do it now.” ~ Ken Kunken
In this episode of The Remarkable People Podcast, David hosts the inspirational Ken Kunken, who shares his journey of becoming a successful attorney despite being a quadriplegic. Ken talks about his life-altering injury during a college football game, his resilience in completing his engineering degree at Cornell University, and his eventual pursuit of a law degree. With support from his family and the drive to make a difference, Ken not only excelled in his career but also became a motivational speaker. He discusses overcoming physical and attitudinal barriers, the importance of maintaining high expectations, and his fulfilling personal life, including his marriage and fatherhood. Ken’s story is a testament to human perseverance and the power of a positive outlook.
