In this episode, we're joined by Winston Clements, a globally recognized keynote speaker, TEDx presenter, and passionate disability advocate. Winston shares his powerful journey living with osteogenesis imperfecta (brittle bone disease) and how he’s turned challenges into opportunities to inspire others.
Born with multiple fractures and facing a unique set of obstacles, Winston offers an insightful look into his childhood, navigating school, and overcoming the limitations others placed on him. He discusses the importance of language, accessibility, and building a mindset that focuses on strengths rather than limitations—lessons that have shaped his work as a motivational speaker and advocate.
Winston also reveals how he stumbled into the world of public speaking, sharing the pivotal moment that led to his first TED Talk. He reflects on the mentors who pushed him to step out of his comfort zone and how that decision transformed his career, allowing him to make a significant impact on audiences around the world.
