University of Exeter Business School
Jamie McAnsh is a globally recognised motivational speaker, adaptive athlete, disabled adventurer and inclusion consultant. After waking up one morning in 2014 paralysed from the waist down due to a rare neurological condition (CRPS), Jamie was forced to rebuild his life from scratch. What followed was not just recovery, but reinvention.
From learning to move his toes to climbing to Everest Base Camp on crutches and later summiting Mount Kilimanjaro in leg braces, Jamie’s journey is one of grit, determination, and redefining possibility.
