The MS Show

In this episode, Bron explores the concept of MS Life Phases (or MS Life stages) in the context of ancient mythology. Specifically, Bron outlines some similarities - the birth, development, combat, demise, burning - shared with the popular mythological creature, the Phoenix.

Bron believes narrating your MS Life can help with processing the understanding and meaning of the phases. This episode offers just one possible approach.

Can you draw any similarities? Would you use a mythological creature to tell your story?

Hear from the UK's Strongest Disabled Man, Dave Walsh (aka Sitting Bull).

How many hours does he train? What's had to change in light of his MS Symptoms?

Dave explains how training has helped him return from the difficult feelings following his diagnosis. An interview full of inspiration.

His MS Mission is not to give in and adapt everything he can to make it doable. "I wish to remain an active strongman and show that just because you may be/become disabled it doesn't have to stop your end goal, you just need to change the way you get there!"

Dave is on these social media accounts:
