Skating Beyond Limits: Cath Shanks' Journey of Resilience and Empowerment
Enjoyed this episode? Send me a text!
When life threw Cath Shanks a curveball in the form of an epilepsy diagnosis, she didn't just catch it—she kicked it into a whole new game. Her story, from the grassy pitches of football to the concrete jungles of skateboarding, exemplifies the raw power of human resilience and the beauty of unexpected second acts. As Cath opens up about her journey, you'll discover a world where limitations dissolve and the rebellious spirit thrives, challenging you to question your own unexplored potential.
Skateboarding isn't just a sport for Cath; it's a vessel of transformation, both for her and those she coaches. From her first wobbly ride to dropping-in on the ramps of Manchester, her narrative is a masterclass in fearlessness and authenticity. For anyone who's ever felt the pang of self-doubt or wrestled with the imposter within, Cath's transition from athlete to revered coach and partnerships with brands like Nike serves as a reminder that with the right push, we can all soar beyond our expectations. This is a tale of not just skill, but soul; not just balance on a board, but balance in life.
Tune in and get whisked away by the infectious energy of a pioneer who's determined to skate against the grain and carve out inclusive spaces where thrills meet therapy. Cath's vision of melding skateboarding with educational and leadership workshops crafts a blueprint for how passion can be the cornerstone of community building.
*Listen until the end for our bloopers of playful banter and shared tears of laughter!
