Osteogenesis Imperfecta is a congenital disorder characterised by brittle bones that are prone to fracture and other features like blue sclera , hearing impairment and discoloured teeth. It is caused by defective collagen synthesis (specifically type 1 collagen). There are many different subtypes of OI and the range of clinical features and severity is vast. There is no cure but treatment may involve medications like bisphosphonates and growth hormone, surgery to fix or prevent fractures or fix deformities, plus lots of physio and  OT interventions.

If you've ever rented an apartment, when you've gone to move out, you've almost certainly told the landlord "I want to get my security deposit back." What happens after that is the great unknown. Most often you've probably just given up arguing with the landlord and let the guy keep your money. Because that's what a huge number of us do, there is about $6 BILLION a year in un-returned security deposits. Marco Nelson is the guy who knows all about that $6B, he's setting about getting it back for all of us, one renter at a time. Marco's startup is called RentCheck and it's already a big deal nationwide. Marco's got a great story about starting out in the military and while his friends are being shipped off to Iraq and Afghanistan, he gets  sent to New Orleans! You just know this guy is going to be a billionaire. Katherine Klimitas is a "3." She's also an artist and the author of a new book of portraits of dogs, called Breed All About Us, with co-author Yvonne Krumins. It's a delightful book, especially if you love dogs, and it's equally as delightful as its authors. Katherine's "3" refers to the specific kind of genetic mutation that makes her the shortest person in New Orleans, at 2 feet 7 inches tall - but there's no way you'd guess that from size of her personality - and Yvonne is an author-in-waiting whose time has finally come. Aaron Maras is one of New Orleans most talented singer-songwriters, and that's saying something. Aaron fronts a band called Cactus Thief built largely around his music. On this Happy Hour he plays two songs off the band's latest album, Two Bells. If you don't know Cactus Thief or Aaron you're going to love making this discovery. Happy Hour is recorded live at the iconic Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans. To see photos from this show by Jill Lafleur, and more check out our website.

I've been so eager to bring Sparsh Shah onto the Live Inspired Podcast since I was first introduced to him in March 2017.  Fifteen-year-old Sparsh shares about being born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, or "Brittle Bone Disease", and how he hasn't let it define his life. Sparsh, also known by his rapper name Purythem, went viral with his rendition of Eminem's Not Afraid and since sang the National Anthem at Madison Square Garden. He radiates positivity while owning his disability with awe-inspiring grace.  Today's conversation is beaming with contagious optimism + resilience that will leave you inspired. SHOW NOTES Sparsh was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, also known as Brittle Bone Disease.  Sparsh has suffered almost 130 fractures, including his skull. "I've dissed my disability." There is always a valley before the hill. Sometimes the deeper the valley, the higher the hill. Ragarap: Sparsh began studying classical Indian + Western vocal music, blending aspects of each into his performances and creating his own sound he calls "ragarap". Rapper Eminem became an inspiration to Sparsh because of his dedication to improving his skills + overcoming a troubled background. Sparsh chose to sing Eminem's Not Afraid because of the uplighting lyrics that made him feel unstoppable; it ultimately became a viral hit viewed over 75 million times.   Watch Sparsh Shah's TEDx Talk, where he speaks of turning the impossible to "I am possible", here. "When one door closes, another opens. We often look so long, hard and regretfully at the closed door, we forget that there was a door open for us." Why waste our life in the past when we can think about what to do now. "The past is history, the future is a mystery. The present is the greatest gift we can receive." - Bil Keane "Sometimes the storms interrupt our daily lives." Follow Sparsh on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. If you enjoyed Sparsh's optimistic outlook of his disability, listen to Live Inspired Podcast ep. 7 with hearing-impaired comedian Kathy Buckley and Live Inspired Podcast ep. 63 with paralyzed barrel racer Amberly Snyder. SPARSH SHAH'S LIVE INSPIRED 7 1. What is the best book you’ve ever read? How to Win Friends & Influence People by Dale Carnegie. The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey. The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey. 2. What is a characteristic or trait that you possessed as a child that you wish you still exhibited today? Resilience and optimism. My dad said I had a smile that would light up anyone's face.  3. Your house is on fire, all living things and people are out. You have the opportunity to run in and grab one item. What would it be? My MacBook. 4. You are sitting on a bench overlooking a gorgeous beach. You have the opportunity to have a long conversation with anyone living or dead. Who would it be? Jesus and I would ask him, "how and why is it that the life that is so imperfect, you made it perfect the way it is?" I've realized in life things are perfectly imperfect. 5. What is the best advice you’ve ever received? No matter what happens in your life, don't give up on your passion. No matter how many bones you break, your voice will never break. You can do anything in life, you've come here for a reason. 6. What advice would you give your 20-year-old self? (Sparsh it not 20-years-old yet!) 7. It’s been said that all great people can have their lives summed up in one sentence. How do you want yours to read? Though I struggled, I refused to suffer.

“I’m in a unique position because I’m going to be more memorable and I use this to reach as many people as possible” In this episode, Jay interviews Winston Clements who shares his story of being memorable and his perspectives on how resilience and positivity should be a part of everyone’s lives. Listen in now to find out why. KEY TAKEAWAYS I started in corporate financial services within technology roles and then moved to consultancy work in software engineering. I initially began public speaking as a hobby but demand for my speaking work has increased and the majority of my time is now focused on sharing my story. I have a condition known as Brittle Bone. This means my bones break very easily, during my childhood I experienced more than 100 breaks in my bones, this is the nature of the condition but as I have grown older it has stabilized. I’ve always been open with people about my story and it inspired me to want to be a public speaker. You have a very strong mindset, where does that come from? I had physical challenges, but my parents brought me up to believe I was the same as anyone else. My sister and I have always been treated equally. So, at school, I expected to be the same as everyone else. Overprotecting me would have hindered my progression, I was able to get out there fall over a few times and learn to pick myself up which is the reality for everyone. I had my down days like everyone else, but I learnt to focus on my strengths. I’ve always found it easy to make connections, be present in the situation and so I concentrated on developing those and being happy. What challenges did you have gaining employment? In my mind, I thought getting a job would be very straightforward, but it took me 6 months to find my first graduate job. During this time, I looked at my mindset and I realised I needed more resilience as it's not just about having the talent but about keeping going even though I didn’t see results straight away. Where did you find resilience? Lots of my close friends got jobs within 1 or 2 months and I started to question how it was possible for them not me. I then realised I needed to look closely at myself and stop playing the victim, blaming it on being different. So, I decided to take ownership of it and instead of applying for 6 or 7 jobs a week I doubled my efforts over everything. Have you had any mentors? I’ve had several mentorship experiences and some that have been life changing. One of my mentors helped me to understand my mission and purpose – that my disability, is my gift, it is about a bigger picture and supporting others. Mentors – it’s all about finding the right fit someone who has experience of where you want to be and someone who you have a rapport with. How do you deal with the down days? I’m a human being and being resilient is a spectrum. Like everybody else, there are days where I feel more or less resilient than on other days. I surround myself with people who are honest with me, pull me up and aren’t afraid to tell me how it is and expect accountability from me. What are you doing at the moment? I still do some consultancy work but am hoping to move across to speaking full time and sharing my message as much as possible through courses and workshops. The thing that has enabled me is that it is my passion, I just want to give value and help people. When you put value first and concentrate being the best at what you do everything else just falls into place. BEST MOMENTS ‘They just wanted me to have as normal an experience as possible’ ‘The easy route is usually not the best route’ ‘The comfort zone is to stay in the victim mentality, at that moment you don’t have to try’ ‘If you take action you can change things for yourself’ ‘Failure happens the day you stop trying and anything in between is feedback’ ‘Whatever you have you need to turn it into a positive’ ‘When an individual messages me to let me know I’ve made an impact on them’ VALUABLE RESOURCES https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/business-mentor-podcast/id1370793386?mt=2  ABOUT THE HOST Jay Dhillon is a serial entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist based in the UK with a proven track record of growing businesses from start-up to success- and helping others do the same. From humble beginnings, Jay grew his first business from 0-500 employees and three locations, racking up sales of over £30 million – all without any investment other than a small amount of savings. The business went on to acquire major clients such as Landrover, Jaguar, Toyota and New Look, to name a few. Its huge success inevitably brought about outside interest and at the age of 33, Jay eventually sold the company to a London investment firm in Doyen Resources. Today, Jay owns several businesses in different sectors and helps entrepreneurs achieve success. A calling to give back and help others led to Jay being chosen for the highly-coveted role as a Prince’s Trust mentor, where his achievements were marked by a personal invitation to Buckingham Palace to meet Prince Charles. After helping several young entrepreneurs to success as a mentor for the Trust, Jay’s burning desire to bring his wisdom and knowledge to a wider audience ultimately triggered the concept of The Business Mentor Podcast. Jay feels that anyone can achieve success in business with the right advice and mentoring and is now sharing his knowledge with his growing audience via his podcast. In the UK alone 95% of business fail within the first five years and Jay’s aim is to reduce that number. Backed with the hard-earned knowledge and experience from his time in business, The Business Mentor Podcast will share Jay’s personal business lessons as well those of other successful entrepreneur guests who share their wisdom and secrets on the show.  CONTACT METHOD https://www.jay-dhillon.com/ https://uk.linkedin.com/in/jaydhillon https://www.instagram.com/jaydhillonuk/ GUEST BIO Winstons Website for more details: https://winstonclements.com Winston shares personal stories from his life and explains the role of resilience in overcoming challenging situations. He shares his top tips on how you can build up resilience, as well as the importance of living in the moment and having fun. Winston Ben Clements was born with a condition known as Brittle Bones disease, medical term Osteogenesis Imperfecta. An obvious characteristic is his small stature and his use of a wheelchair, which does not tell the story of the frequent and painful bone fractures that disrupted much of his childhood. Nonetheless, Winston successfully graduated with a degree in Computer Science and built up a successful corporate career in the Technology sector. He is passionate about Speaking and his mission is to create a world where nobody feels limited in what they can achieve.

Samuel was born with a severe genetic bone disorder - has had countless broken bones, cannot walk, is 3 feet tall ........ and his story will change your life ! ‘There is always a way’ to get things done. It may not be conventional but, ‘there is always a way’.. This is the creed of Samuel Gibson. Samuel is a speaker, business entrepreneur and adventurer. His quest for testing his boundaries has taken him to many parts of the word and enabled him to change his and other people's lives in the process. His amazing story has been documented on New Zealand television, design magazines and even in a children’s book, winning him the coveted "Attitude Enterprise Award" along the way. Samuel was less than five minutes old when both his legs were broken by a well-meaning midwife. Sam was born with a genetic bone condition called Osteogenesis Imperfecta, or Brittle Bones. He cannot walk, is 3 feet tall, yet considers himself lucky! His story is one you will never forget. Growing up in a loving family environment, Samuel just wanted to be like all the other kids. He did what the other kids did even if it meant breaking a bone or two along the way. One thing for sure Samuel was not going to become a statistic. Not going to put his life on hold. The attitude he developed, the lessons he learnt and the obstacles he had to overcome along the way makes for a story that will make you laugh, make you cry and inspire you. After a short time on the speaking circuit Samuel is making a huge impact. His story appeals to all audiences, he has addressed project managers, scientists, medical practitioners, corporate leaders, young leaders, service organisations and CEO's. His life is testimony to his attitude. He is a Husband, Father, successful business entrepreneur and adventurer, but more importantly an example of how to overcome obstacles no matter how great. Up next is a 300km running/wheeling mission with Lisa Tamati to raise money for another little boy with the same disease.  www.runninghotcoaching.com www.lisatamati.co.nz
