34. Finding strength in gratitude (ft. Sam Staffurth)

Unbalanced with Cerys Davage ·

2024/09/15

I honestly feel a new lease of life after my conversation with Sam today. As a young adult also with a degenerative condition but that affects the nerves, Sam has a lot on his plate. But his choice to stay focused on the good things in life and keeping a positive mentality is something I definitely needed to hear for myself, whilst also having a good laugh. I hope you enjoy our candid chat on breaking hidden disability stereotypes and embracing life as much as we can :)
