About this listen
Her vertebrae are shaped like footballs, and doctors told her parents she wouldn't live past the age of five. This week, we're joined by the incredible Natasha, who shares her story of living with Morquio Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. She takes us on the journey of her "two lives": the one before and the one after a spinal stroke during a routine surgery left her paralyzed at 16. Despite the immense challenges, Natasha's story is filled with shocking humor, unshakable positivity, and unforgettable moments (like meeting Taylor Swift for her Make-A-Wish). This is a conversation about resilience, adaptation, and finding joy in the most unexpected places.
