How my Legs Give Me Super Powers
By LeahI am so inspired by Aimee Mullins!
Aimee is a double amputee who decided to embrace what makes her different and to stop worrying about making everyone else comfortable!
She wouldn’t settle for the prosthetic leg options that were being offered to her and she set out to find people who were willing to explore what was possible. Doing so resulted in her; setting world records, walking the runway, and becoming an actor.
I hope you are as inspired as I am by this TED talk she did!
