About this listen

Years after a devastating car accident, Kirsty Ryan told her story live on national radio - unknowingly setting in motion a reunion with the Occupational Therapist who had changed everything for her years before.

That OT helped restore Kirsty’s dignity, voice, and purpose - and ultimately inspired her to become an OT herself.

*** This episode release was scheduled to coincide with Kirsty's wedding to her partner Kevin! 💍💐Share your marriage tips for the happy couple in the comments below or leave a simple note of congratulations!

Kirsty continues to inspire many not only through her work as an Occupational Therapist, a Seating Specialist and as Clinical Training Manager at Seating Matters but also through her powerful personal journey - from patient to Occupational Therapist, and now, to becoming a voice of hope and purpose for others.
