Kevin Collins - My Journey with Easter Seals

from The Lesley Hawkins Podcast · host Lesley Hawkins

From a young age, our guest understood what it meant to be seen through a label. Born with cerebral palsy, he could have allowed the diagnosis to define the boundaries of his life. Instead, he chose something different. At just eight years old, he became involved with Easter Seals, an organization dedicated to supporting children and youth with disabilities in carving their own paths. What began as personal connection evolved into lifelong commitment. Today, he serves as President of Easter Seals Ontario, leading the very organization that once supported him.Along the way, his dedication to community work and fundraising has been recognized at the highest levels. But this conversation isn’t about titles or accolades. It’s about identity. It’s about refusing to be defined by circumstance. And what becomes possible when you shift from being supported to becoming the one who supports others. visit www.easterseals.org to learn more or to donate#pivotalmoment #EasterSeals #disabilitySend us Fan MailLesley Hawkins is a keynote speaker with her signature keynote "The Courage To Define and Own Your Worth", workshop developer (The Leadership Mirror and The Leaders Table), leadership strategist, and storyteller who believes growth happens in the everyday moments that define who we become. Drawing on years of experience leading, guiding, and mentoring teams, Lesley brings authenticity, curiosity, and heart to the conversation as each interaction is an opportunity to define what truly matters.One question.
