Portrait of Travelers with Disabilities™:
Mobility and Accessibility

We are excited to share that MMGY Global will be welcoming guest speaker Jamie McAnsh on Tuesday, Oct. 25th, at 10 a.m. CT to share his experiences as an adventure-seeker and entrepreneur who is disabled. We encourage everyone to attend and get involved in being an advocate for the 61 million Americans with a disability.

Jamie’s story is unique. He is an adventure-seeker, adaptive athlete, entrepreneur and role model for the disabled community, but above all he’s a survivor serving as an inspiration for anyone overcoming adversities in life.

In 2014, Jamie went to bed "as normal" but woke up the next morning paralyzed from the waist down after rupturing his spine in his sleep. Faced with a new reality, Jamie used his challenges as a stepping stone to adapt to a new way of living. In his talks, Jamie shares his very personal stories of challenges, successes and failures. His ultimate message is that if you fall you need to adapt, overcome and most of all #getbackup.
