While I was up in Sydney, I was lucky enough to spend time with Madison de Rozario, three-time Paralympian who is heading off for her fourth in Tokyo this year. Madi made her Paralympic debut in wheelchair racing at just 14 years old at the Beijing 2008 games taking home three silver medals since then as well as a string of other accolades and achievements. She is an incredible role model and advocate for the visibility of the disabled community, reshaping our perception of disability and truly going after your dreams. As you'll hear, she is delightfully bubbly, humble and articulate and it's no surprise to me that she was named the 2020 Barbie Australian Shero (that's she-hero) as part of Barbie's Global Role Model campaign inspiring women the world over with a one of a kind doll. As one of my favourite childhood brands, I've loved learning how Barbie is inspiring the limitless potential of every girl introducing different body types, hair, skin and everything in between and as you'll see in the episode image, Madi's doll comes complete with her racing chair. Madi's excitement and drive is infectious and I hope you enjoy hearing her story! + Follow Madison here + Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah + Join our Facebook community here + Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!
