Episode Synopsis
On this episode of "Into the Unknown" Jess Silver isn’t just breaking barriers — she’s redesigning the system. Born with cerebral palsy and raised to defy expectations, Jess transformed personal adversity into global advocacy through her nonprofit Flex for Access. In this powerful episode, she joins host Jeremy Swick to explore how adaptive fitness, storytelling, and sport became the cornerstones of her movement for inclusion — and why redefining “normal” in health and wellness is long overdue.From launching a worldwide hashtag campaign to writing her memoir Run an Uncharted Direction, Jess reveals how she’s challenging cultural narratives around disability, rewriting access in gyms and wellness spaces, and pushing the limits of what’s possible when you refuse to stay small. If you've ever wondered how to turn lived experience into legacy, Jess’s story is the blueprint. Her journey isn’t just inspirational — it’s actionable.Follow Us:Instagram @Pod.IntotheUnknownFacebook - Into the UnknownFollow Jess Silver: Instagram: hitps://instagram.com/jesssilverrrInstagram: https://instagram.com/flexforaccess Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064481358579LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jess-silver-70975143/Are you looking to start a podcast?
