Inclusion Revolution Radio podcast host Novie Craven is pleased to welcome our newest Special Olympics Champion Ambassador, television host, motivational speaker and author, Victoria Arlen to the show.
Victoria was recently named a Champion Ambassador of Special Olympics, where she will continue to use her platform to advocate for those with disabilities.
In her lifetime, Victoria has faced several challenges that many would deem impossible to overcome. At the age of 11, Victoria developed two rare conditions that caused her to lose the ability to speak, eat, walk, and move. After being told she would never recover, Victoria began her journey back to mobility having to relearn many things. However, she didn’t stop there; she pushed herself to becoming a four-time Paralympic medalist, author, on-air talent for ESPN, founder of her own nonprofit, among many other accomplishments.
Don’t forget to subscribe and tune in to this week’s episode of Inclusion Revolution Radio with Victoria Arlen to hear more about Victoria’s accomplishments, her experience covering Special Olympics USA Games 2022, how inclusion has played a role in her story, and the announcement of her new recognition as Champion Ambassador of Special Olympics!
