Turning Limitations Into Potential - Ruby Bishop, International Tennis Player

About this episode

Ruby Bishop shares her inspiring journey as a wheelchair tennis player and her role as a voice for the marginalized.

When a tennis player in that's in the TOP 30 IN THE WORLD (at just 22 years of age) says that she's happy to come onto the podcast...you jump at it! Ruby Bishop is one extraordinary human, representing Great Britain as a wheelchair tennis player, reaching #3 in the junior world rankings and now taking on the entire world in the seniors. But  the hurdles & cards that Ruby was dealt with at birth has galvanised this woman to become such a beacon of hope for so many people. We talk about her story, but also why she has 'accidentally' become a real voice for those who are marginalised by the perceived limitations that the world sees. The big thing for me? She is so damn calm about it all!!!! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
