Disabilities

Self-Discovery

Inspiring change in others begins with personal changes made within. Self-discovery is the catalyst for transformation and recognizing the aspects of oneself best suited to inspire others. Understanding life’s diversity makes everyone stronger and better equipped to initiate changes that benefit all. Self-discovery can occur through intuitive knowledge gained as a person grows older or as a result of life-altering events.

Nick Scott was an average 16-year-old who played on his high school football team and loved athletics. His life mirrored that of any teenager—attending classes and spending time with friends.

Miraculously, Nick survived a near-death experience, emerging from the twisted metal of his car. Suddenly, he found himself paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair.
