Most people believe their life would stop the moment everything changed. Perry Cross proves the opposite.
At 19, a rugby accident left Perry a C2 ventilated quadriplegic. In a single moment, the future he imagined disappeared, but where many would have accepted defeat, Perry chose purpose. He has since travelled the world, become a powerful advocate for people living with disabilities, and founded the Perry Cross Spinal Research Foundation, helping raise millions for spinal cord research and the search for a cure. His work also focuses on improving accessible housing, ensuring disability never limits how people live.
In this episode of Think Uncommon, we explore resilience, responsibility, and the power of choosing how you respond to adversity. Perry’s story isn’t about tragedy, but the courage of a man who chooses every day to Think Uncommon.
