Recorded late last year, The Nest Effect features an inspiring conversation with Adam Sheppard, para-athletics coach, retired wheelchair racer, and multi-sport athlete.

Adam’s life is defined not by limitations, but by possibilities. From competing internationally and setting records in wheelchair racing to discovering a new passion in para powerlifting, Adam embodies resilience, courage, and determination.

In this episode, we explore:

• Adam’s journey from swimming and basketball to world-class wheelchair racing
• How sport empowered him to overcome barriers and inspire others
• The mindset behind his transition into coaching and mentoring
