"Making Nature Wheelchair Accessible," with Sam & Ryan Artwork

The Truth About Things That Suck

Welcome! I'm Mindy Henderson, motivational speaker, author and coach. Living life from a wheelchair, surviving 2 devastating car crashes, lost jobs, and a host of other challenges, I have learned to navigate the curve-balls life throws at us, and now, my mission is to bring positivity to the world, to teach others how to navigate adversity well, to stop making excuses, and to see all they are truly capable of. Because…the truth about things that suck, is that…they suck. They won’t be fun, but it’s possible to have two truths that coexist at the same time…the 2nd truth is that there is a lot we can learn, a lot we can do and a lot of gifts that the sucky things bring to our lives and that empower us to make the world better. This podcast is a tool I’ve created to help us uncover those sucky, but surprisingly beautiful circumstances.

"Making Nature Wheelchair Accessible," with Sam & Ryan

January 18, 2021 • Mindy Henderson

Sam and Ryan have been friends since high school. Recently they have teamed up to become the marketing department for Extreme Motus. Together they go on adventures in the Emma X3 off-road wheelchair. From National Parks to skate parks Sam and Ryan are showing the world that "Nature is wheelchair accessible."

Their TikTok channel has grown to 138,000 followers who come to laugh and be inspired by this odd couple. Ryan has been a content creator since the early days of YouTube when he took a motorcycle ride in 2007 from Utah to the Panama Canal and back, filming videos and uploading from the road. Sam, was born with Cerebral Palsy, but like Superman, was also born with several special abilities:

1: He can hold his breath during laughing fits so powerful the U.S. Government once attempted to harness them as a source of renewable energy.
2: The ability to laugh at all of Ryan's dumb jokes.
