About this listen

Bailley Unahi suffered a spinal cord injury at just 19 years old while studying at Otago University. She was at a flat on Castle Street when the balcony collapsed at the start of a Six60 gig in 2016. It was a life-changing moment - one that Bailley not only faced head-on, but turned into a positive. She shares how grateful she is for everything that has happened since. Bailley admits she finds it hard to say no to new opportunities, and it’s her relentless determination and drive that have brought her closer than ever to securing a spot on the Winter Paralympics team for 2026.
