Adaptive Surfing, Self-Belief and Animal Advocacy with Liv Stone

From tagging giant rhinos in Africa to surfing perfect barrels at Kelly Slater's ranch, on this episode of the podcast, Albert is joined by a guest who is continuously pushing the boundaries in everything she does. At just 17 years of age, Liv Stone won her first International Surfing Association (ISA) World Para Surfing Championship Gold Medal. A congenital, bilateral, above- the-elbow amputee with two fingers on each of her small hands, Liv is a powerful advocate for her community of people with disabilities, partnering with Lego, Toyota, Adobe, and many more. In her conversation with Albert, the two discuss how the water is Liv’s happy place where she can disconnect from school and life. Liv speaks about her use of “aquatic prosthetics” for paddling out when she is surfing, and Albert and Liv chew on just what keeps them going out to chase crazy waves day after day. Liz also highlights her passion for animal advocacy and conservation, sharing the various career paths she is considering after graduating from college.
