On the Canyon's Edge with Aly Corvin
Life is about choices you can choose to feel sad about your life and what comes next, but you can also choose to live your life to the fullest. Aly Corvin decided to enjoy her passions for dance , rock climbing, and skydiving despite dealing with unspecified Elhers-Danlos- Syndrome, daily joint dislocations, the mental health challenges that come with a traumatic brain injury. On this episode join us for a detailed conversation about not getting a diagnosis until the age of 23, the long term impact on her body after being encouraged by doctors to get into dance, entering and winning MRS Wheelchair California by accident, and her attempts to redefine what's possible for people with disabilities by advocating and participating in skydiving and rolling around the Grand Canyon.
