Jazz Thornton talks with Jess Quinn about her journey from child cancer survivor to Paralympian, body positive advocate and model. Jess talks about her initial diagnosis and the moment her life changed, what it was like to grow up quickly in the face of trauma and disability and when she started her journey to being a body positive advocate after she shared her “blade” for the first time.
