A Change to Togetherness: How to Make Change Through Adversity | Nick Watson | TEDxOudMetha

In his inspirational talk, Nick Watson recaps his journey around how parenthood opened a whole new chapter for his love of Triathlons and how his Son Rio, born with a genetic disorder, takes part in sports and inspires Togetherness and Inclusion for others. Both touching and eye-opening on so many levels, Nick’s talk holds insight for parents, for individuals who are differently-abled, and even for those who need a spark of motivation to get a little more active.
