S2 EP.8 | Overcoming Adversity With The Gockels

from Build Your Best Life · host Sherrie Storor

In this episode of the #BuildYourBestLife Podcast, we're going to step away from the real estate industry for just a second and talk to PARALYMPIAN PAUL AND WINGLESS WARRIOR WIFE KERRY-LEE GOCKEL. Kerry-Lee was born without arms and grew up doing everything with her feet from day one. She's a self-proclaimed wingless warrior, a lawyer by qualification, and she's just completed an 11 Kilometre ocean swim for charity. Paul was born with a condition note of spinal Bifida and only took up swimming at 23yr to maintain some physical fitness. However, he was selected for two Paralympic teams for Australia, winning a silver medal in the men's four by 100 team relay. Now, Paul and Kerry-Lee show us that if you want it, if you work for it, then go for it because anything is possible. Their story is one of overcoming adversity despite life's disadvantages, it is one of true inspiration. A story of how to Build Your Best Life.
