Show Notes
In Episode 63 of 45 on the Hour, Colt Curtis sits down with a truly inspiring guest: Russ on Wheelz.
On May 26, 2013, Russ’s life changed forever after a diving accident in Lake Havasu left him paralyzed from the neck down, with a C4/5 spinal cord injury and dependent on a ventilator. But Russ’s story is not about limitation—it’s about unshakable purpose and mindset.
Now a motivational speaker, author, and host of the podcast I Am More Than My Wheelchair, Russ has dedicated his life to inspiring others in the spinal cord injury community. He also serves as an ambassador for the Triumph Foundation, helping newly injured individuals navigate the emotional and physical challenges of their new reality.
This episode is a powerful conversation on mental toughness, acceptance, positivity, and the choice to rise in the face of life-altering adversity.
