Ep. 20: Morgan McCarthy- "Admiration not Inspiration"

My friend Morgan McCarthy joined the podcast to share her story of living with cerebral palsy and how it has impacted and strengthened her mental health.

We Chat About:
-How gratitude and empathy are keys to her positive mindset
-Why she prefers "Admiration" rather than being called an Insipration
-What works for her mental health, and how exercise and the gym are huge for her
-Her love for skiing and experience with the Double H Ranch Adaptive Ski Program
-How she uses visualization as a tool to be able to ski with her kids someday
-Her history of anxiety and depression and how she continues to help others

Morgan is a 27-year-old living with Spastic Diplegia Cerebral Palsy and a genetic mutation called Brachydactyly. She has had professional speaking opportunities for as long as she could talk.  Morgan holds a Master's Degree in Hospitality Management, working at the Gideon Putnam. Morgan lives in our hometown of Saratoga Springs with her Service Dog, Dewey II.
