After a tragic accident left him paralyzed from the chest down, Fletcher Cleaves could have given up on his dreams. Instead, he rewrote the narrative. Once a promising football player, now a globetrotting motivational speaker and accessibility advocate, Fletcher shares how faith, family, and mindset helped him rise above adversity.

In this powerful and inspiring conversation, Fletcher—also known as “The Wheelchair Nomad”—opens up about:

  • The crash that changed his life and the comeback that redefined it
  • Finding identity beyond sports and transforming pain into purpose
  • Becoming a global traveler and bringing awareness to accessibility challenges
  • Navigating entrepreneurship, public speaking, and DEI work
  • Advice for students, athletes, and anyone rebuilding after a setback

Whether you're an athlete, parent, educator, or entrepreneur, Fletcher’s story will challenge your definition of limitations and inspire you to live boldly. Because as he says: “Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footprints on the moon.”
