Lyndsay Watterson has designed walking sticks used by Selma Blair and Christina Applegate. And if that's not impressive enough, she also performed death-defying circus moves at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Paralympic Games in London. While Coldplay performed! After having arthritis since her teens, Lyndsay had knee replacement surgery at age 39. But an infection left her in more pain, so she took the decision to have the leg she describes as "not a team player" amputated. By this time, she'd already decided that, as a younger lady with a disability, Lyndsay wanted a cool, confident walking stick to help her find her own confidence again. So she created Neo-Walk sticks, gorgeous handmade walking aids in tactile acrylic, and lots of vibrant colors. Lyndsay’s mission at Neo-Walk is to see disability normalized and for designers to embrace our needs in mainstream products. She is passionate about inclusion and wants to use her success to shout it from the rooftops. In this conversation, we talk about her health issues and the frustration she felt when seeing the lack of choice when it came to choosing her first walking aid. She also tells us about creating her first walking stick in her kitchen, the reaction she got when she used it, and all of the amazing things she has done - and continues to do.
