Ep 25 - Jessica Cox - The Worlds First Armless Pilot


Listen Later

If you ever needed inspiration, look no further!


There are not a lot of people on this planet that are as inspirational as Jessica is. Jessica was born with no arms - but that has not stopped or slowed her down, by any means. She has achieved amazing things. Jessica is not only the first armless pilot, but also the first armless black-belt in Taekwondo.


Her spirit and courage are infectious. She does not accept no, and she has eliminated "I cant" from her vocabulary, allowing her to overcome any obstacle she sets her mind to.

I caught up with Jessica while she was at the airport. We sat to have a very interesting conversation about her childhood, her life, and her journey to become who she is today.

We discussed how she looks at challenges, would she ever be interested in prosthetics, what did it feel like the first time she flew solo, and what her future goals are.


Anytime you speak with someone like Jessica, who is so inspirational and so full of life, the energy is contagious. I hope you feel the same way after listening to her speak.


My Take - Your mind is the most important tool you own. If you keep it sharp, your body will adapt and follow. Jessica is proof that the body is just a tool for the mind to use - and if the mind is determined, your body will follow.

So make up your mind - and demand of your body to do what it is capable of.
