Recorded live at the 2025 Limb Preservation Foundation Symposium in Golden Colorado, this is Part 1 of a powerful two-part AMP’D UP211 series that captures the energy, advocacy, and innovation driving the future of limb loss and limb preservation.Hosted by amputee and podcast creator Rick Bontkowski, this special episode puts you in the room with three trailblazers who are each reshaping the way we think about mobility, identity, and resilience:Cam Ayala – After gaining national attention on The Bachelorette, Cam has emerged as a powerful voice for lymphedema awareness and life after limb loss. His story is raw, real, and deeply human.Dr. Connor Glass – As the founder of Phantom Neuro, Dr. Glass is revolutionizing prosthetic limb control through cutting-edge neurotechnology. He shares how his work is bringing lifelike movement and autonomy to those living with limb difference.Angelina Martinson – A biomedical engineer and Paralympic hopeful, Angelina is using her lived experience to fuel change in how prosthetics are developed, discussed, and delivered. Her perspective is both personal and profoundly inspiring.This conversation was made possible by The Limb Preservation Foundation, an organization dedicated to advancing research, treatment, and hope for those in the Limb Loss community. Their 2025 Symposium brought together leading voices from across the medical, advocacy, and amputee communities, and AMP’D UP211 was honored to be part of it.If you’ve ever wondered what’s next for limb loss advocacy, innovation, and community—this episode is your front-row seat.Tune in now for Part 1.
