He shares how he manages his NDIS funds with the help of a support coordinator and his advice for people who are new to the scheme.  In very exciting news, Steve is hosting a new, soon-to-launch podcast for Hireup called Life Rolls On.

Tracie Garacochea is a WCMX skater (Wheelchair Moto Cross, a sport created and by Aaron Fotheringham) it's a young sport, and Tracie has been making her mark on it for 7 years! At the age of 62, she finds herself carving out new frontiers as she pushes her sport with personal style, commitment, and a tangible love for community and the next generation of skaters. Even more than her pro-tour & competition appearances at the Dew Tour, and wins at Exposure, her focus is volunteering, as it has been her entire life. She is fueled by an innate desire to show what's possible and extending those possibilities to kids by giving her time to expand access to more durable chairs suitable for sport, and teaching kids how to skate using their wheelchairs. In this interview, Tracie opens up about how she's adapted her goals and pursuits to meet the changing tides of her life. She addresses how skating helped her to see her wheelchair as an empowering tool, and other gear that keeps her rolling including the adapted protective gear that has allowed her to address MS symptoms that impact her skating. Her flexibility extends to her artistic mediums as well, and she shares how her approach to artwork has shifted as MS has changed her ability to work with her hands. Tracie shines light on the institutional challenges she's experienced as a disabled person. She recounts an exclusionary experience she had at a skate park, and the distrust she holds for our medical system which often fails to see the whole of a person's experience by rushing them in and out of appointments. Throughout this interview Tracie emanates an undeniable sense of wonder that is truly infectious. From the exuberant way she talks about her skate bestie, skateboarder, Brooklyn Khoury, to her appreciation of assorted found objects that she collects from the skate park. Take this ride with us and get to know Tracie!CHECK OUT THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT TRACIE WORKS WITH AND BELIEVES IN!: Challenged Athletes Foundation:https://www.challengedathletes.org/Life Rolls On:https://liferollson.org/PlayLA:https://www.laparks.org/play-laUS Center for Safe Sport:https://uscenterforsafesport.org/USA Skateboarding:https://usaskateboarding.com/Catch up with Tracie on IG:https://www.instagram.com/traciegara/?hl=enSupport Skaterade!

The force broke his neck, severing his spinal cord at the C6 level and instantly rendered him a quadriplegic. Billauer was told by doctors that he would never surf again. However, Billauer eventually did return to surfing, adapting his surfing technique and equipment to the situation of his current condition. He has become a role model guide to many other surfers, both professional and amateur, on how to live life to the fullest, despite a life-changing injury. Through these efforts, Jesse has gained sponsorships from companies including Hurley, Channel Islands Surfboards (who developed a "Jesse Billauer" model), LoFric, Wavejet and Shoe City. After graduating from Malibu High School, Billauer eventually enrolled at San Diego State University, with an emphasis in Communications. He graduated in 2002. He is also a motivational speaker, and is Executive Director of the non profit foundation he founded, "Life Rolls On." Through this foundation, Jesse is taking a leading role in awareness and activism for spinal cord injury related quality of life programs. The 2003 Docs-Film Step Into Liquid featured his story and his friendship with Rob Machado Billauer was also featured on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Dateline NBC, Good Morning America, While You Were Out, E! True American Story and more. In 2004 he won the 10News (San Diego) Leadership Award for his commitment to Life Rolls On Foundation. His life story is featured in the book Bouncing Forward: Transforming Bad Breaks into Breakthroughs. In 2005 Billauer became the first quadriplegic surfer to surf the dangerous waves of Cloudbreakin Fiji. He now surfs utilizing a power-assisted surfboard created by Wavejet. The inaugural "Jesse's Story on Tour" speaking tour began in April 2006. This Tour has traversed the country and Jesse has delivered his message of Overcoming Adversity to over 100,000 people. In December 2006 Billauer broke his femur while surfing large waves on the North Shore of Oahu (Hawaii). This injury led to the development of improved equipment for disabled surfers. He has recovered and is back in the water surfing again. In September 2013 he took over as Executive Director and CEO of Life Rolls On Foundation. On December 6, 2013 Billauer became engaged to his longtime girlfriend Samanta Pearson and on October 26, 2014 he married her at the historical Adamson House in Malibu.

"We make a living by what we GET. We make a life by what we GIVE." -Winston Churchill. Summertime is when most teachers choose to relax...unless you're Kevin Murphy. Kevin teaches 5th grade English at Mary C. Williams Elementary School August through June and then spends his entire summer giving back. Kevin and his awesome team of instructors offer free surf lessons to help people, who might not otherwise, spend time in the ocean. Kevin founded Ocean Cure over 10 years ago and serves a wide variety of groups: impoverished youth, gang survivors, wounded warriors and their families, people with disabilities, cancer survivors, and seniors, just to name a few. Research has already proven that spending time at the beach is good for your well being; Ocean Cure is proof that the ocean really does offer healing powers. I hope this week's episode inspires people to help others. "Help your neighbor, help a stranger."
