Meaghan: The determined and self-aware life after an amputation
Join us as we get to hear from Meaghan, a licensed clinical psychologist, who endured cancer and a leg amputation in her preteen years. She is a PERFECT example of resilience, strength, and maturity when it comes to EVERYTHING in her life. Here are some clickbait quotes you don't want to miss:
- “Is an amputation considered a limb difference?”
- “How can I shake your hand in a way that’s comfortable to you?”
- “Don’t just do, but ask me what I need”

- Do friends get more aggravated than we do when someone in public stares?
- Coaching others in how to respond
- Being joyful and ready for an amputation at 12 years old
- “I didn’t know how to relate to people my age because nobody else was going through what I was”
- The power of resilience
- “When trying something new, grab a friend who knows you well to go with you!”
