This is the incredible story of ZION CLARK, whose life has taken everything away from the first day.
Born without legs due to “caudal regression” syndrome, and abandoned by his mother at birth, he spends his first 16 years between one house of trust, until he discovers the wrestling and love of a new mother .
He is a Guiness World Record holder has featured on Ellen, CNN, Fox News, ESPN and features in the Netflix Documentary ‘Zion’ scoring two Sports Emmy's and nominated for Short Film Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
Became the first American Athlete to compete in both the Olympic (wrestling) and Paralympic (wheelchair racing) Games in Tokyo (2020) and when he isn’t qualifying or training he stays busy as a motivational speaker
The moral of Zion's inspirational story is that things don't always go smoothly in life...but in order to succeed, you must adapt to your individual circumstances.
Priding himself in hard work, Zion offers that there are no excuses...or shortcuts!
It's all about faith, passion, and perseverance.
One of the most inspirational episodes as founder Glenn chats with Zion about his journey and shows that there are no excuses that should stop you from doing what you love and what you want to do in life even when odds may be presented to you..
