Already doing more in her years on this earth then many hope to achieve in their lifetime, Rhiannon is a motivational speaker, wellness advocate, model, and lifestyle influencer with a beautiful point of difference. While many may let a life-changing injury hold them back from living their dreams, Rhiannon has used it as further motivation to create a life she loves, helping and inspiring thousands along the way.After a pool accident made her a quadriplegic just before her 21st Birthday, Rhiannon’s big plans for the future were suddenly put on hold. Understandably, she initially struggled to come to terms with her diagnosis of never walking again, but Rhiannon’s tenacious drive and determination saw her set out to prove the doctors wrong. Everything happens for a reason - While it took many years to believe it, Rhiannon says her injury has given her a newfound purpose she had never felt before, enabling her life to blossom into what it is today. In addition to now being able to walk short distances with the assistance of crutches, drive and live independently, Rhiannon also founded and started a spinal cord injury rehabilitation charity and recovery centre called The Next Step. Rhiannon is raw, she’s real and she is a magnificent light that shines a light on own possibilities and the power of turning our pain into purpose!
