from Planet Tyrus · host Outkick

Can a 19-year-old author with Cerebral Palsy teach a wrestling legend about "spiciness" and authenticity? In this powerful episode of Planet Tyrus, Tyrus sits down with Maddie Fragner a self-published author, artist, and student who refuses to be defined by her wheelchair. From debating the greatest villains in Shakespeare to discussing the grit required to ignore the gatekeepers of the publishing world, this conversation is a masterclass in work ethic and humbleness. Maddie opens up about the "tumultuous teens" marked by tragedy, the pressure of being labeled an "inspiration," and how her deep faith and love for stories kept her grounded.
