What makes an adaptive athlete able to adapt?

This is an encore episode while I focus on my teaching.  

This week's guest is Shuan Butcher.

Having been an able-bodied athlete before I became a quad amputee, I went into this interview with Shuan already having an understanding of the importance of sport. To me, soccer was my art and I assume that the same love for one's sport is in every adaptive athlete.

Discussing Shuan's work with Move United, Move United Magazine, and the Redefining Disability Podcast, solidified my belief that an athlete is an athlete, whether he or she is 'whole' or has a disability.

Shuan is a rare individual in that he 'fits' his various roles -- or perhaps they fit him. After learning about his experiences as a background actor in such hit shows as Netflix’s House of Cards and AMC’s Making the Mob, I'll be watching for him on my television screen in the future.
