In this episode we speak with Brigid Kelly and her incredibly inspiring sister, Katie Kelly. Katie was diagnosed with usher syndrome which affects both eyesight and hearing with it slowly degenerating over time. Despite this Katie won a gold medal at the Paralympics in Rio in the triathlon while tethered to a guide, she has received the Order of Australia Medallion, started a foundation that gives grants to young disabled athletes and continues to inspire every day. We are privileged to share this incredible story and hope you gain a lot from it.
