I'm a former Royal Marines Commando who was injured in Afghanistan and became the UK's first triple amputee from the conflict, and I set this Podcast up as an audio journal to record my thoughts, feeling and experiences about living my life as a triple amputee but also to pass on any useful information and advice that I've accumulated along my journey in the hope to help those who are able bodied or less abled that might be facing some difficulties in their lives.
I first became aware of Dooa a few years ago when a friend of mine asked me to wave the flag and start the Plymouth 10K. I stood on the bleachers, the start horn sounded, I waved the flag and then proceeded to watch a sea of runners sync their watches and sip their water as they sprinted off to take part in the race.
Towards the tail end of that wave was Dooa, the only wheelchair athlete who had entered the race. I watched her push across the start line, clearly in the zone ready and primed to race and then she was gone.
I didn’t manage to see her at the end as the place was jammed but often when driving through our home town of Plymouth I’d spot her out and about but never found the right opportunity to say hello.
Then out of the blue Dooa sent me a DM about coming on the Podcast and here we are.
I think you’re really going to enjoy this one because Dooa has a great story to tell. As she’s telling it try and put yourself in her shoes and imagine some of the adversity that she’s overcome.
She truly is a remarkable woman and someone I’m very proud to have had on the show.
Enjoy.....

Episode 035 - Liv Chapman
Liv Chapman is a remarkable young woman with a very bright future.
Liv was born with a limb difference and had to face all the usual hurdles a young lady faces growing up but with the extra challenges her differences brought along with them.
With a great family and great friends around her she embraced what made her different instead of shying away from it and it looks like that attitude and approach is going to take her to some incredible places and inspire others to do the same.
Enjoy…
