How Jimmy Jan Is Embracing Life After Paralysis

This week, Ant's joined by TikTok star Jimmy Jan. When Covid lockdowns hit, the then-21 year old medical student headed from Newcastle to the Snowy Mountains to split his days between studying online and the slopes. But whilst skiing, one wrong landing changed everything for Jimmy, and he was left paralysed from the waist down. He speaks to Ant about how he's changed his mindset to embrace his disability and how when life throws you curveballs, you just have to pivot.  LINKS Follow Jimmy Jan on Instagram @jimmy.jan Follow Ant on Instagram, X, and Facebook Learn more about Ant on his website antmiddleton.com Follow Nova Podcasts on Instagram for videos from the podcast and behind the scenes content – @novapodcastsofficial.
