Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People
What does it really mean to break free? Spencer West, author, speaker, and disability advocate, shares how he learned to see disability not simply as something that happened to him, but as an identity, a perspective, and even a competitive advantage. He opens up about climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the power of interdependence, and why resilience often comes from having no other choice. Spencer also explores the traps we build by following other people’s expectations and how small acts of disruption can help us rediscover joy, confidence, and purpose. He discusses his new book, Breaking Free, and the lessons he has learned about choosing your own path rather than living the life someone else mapped out for you.
