In this episode, I am joined by Deja Young-Craddock. Deja is an American Paralympian in athletics. Deja speaks about her physical impairment and her introduction to sport which led to her amazing career so far. Deja made her first senior team in 2015. She talks about the highs and lows she has experienced and what led to her suicide attempt. She speaks about her support network and how that helped with her quick turnaround to the Paralympic games. Deja is also a new mum and she talks about the excitement but also the grief that she experienced. It was a pleasure getting to chat with Deja and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
