Nigel Corish was born with Cerebral Palsy, living with a disability has shaped much of his life outlook and amongst the challenges, it has fostered a need to be adaptive and think outside the box, you could say, it’s even a superpower.  Nigel has an impressive feat of accomplishments to his name, from Cotton Grower of the Year, Young Australian Farmer of the Year, and Nuffield Scholar.  In this week's episode Nigel talks about the moments of frustration, the desire to be ‘normal’ and when he learnt to embrace and acknowledge his disability.  In our chat he openly shares with us the challenges he has encountered living with this medical condition and how through hard work in many moments of frustration, self acceptance and nurturing in an inclusive environment in his community and family, made it possible for him to live a normal, active life and achieve his dreams. Nigel is a true inspiration. His grit and determination to achieve all he has in his lifetime serve as an inspiration to those living and not living with a disability in Australia. A must listen. This is Nigel Corish’s story.  Nigel’s story is part of our partnership with the Nuffield Australia - Nuffield Scholar program - Where we are shining a light on some of the incredible stories of some of their scholars.
