Finding a Way to Win

In his hallmark keynote presentation, three-time Paralympic World Champion wheelchair athlete, Kevin Saunders motivational coach, inspirational speaker and inspirational athlete talks about how overcoming adversity using inspirational faith, hard work, and a Never Give Up attitude has affected his life. Through humor, personal stories and anecdotes about his well-known friends, Kevin presses the one point that's made every difference in his life – to Never Give Up because with hard work. Courage, persistence, and determination There’s Always a Way. Men and women with disabilities have the same choice as everyone else - to dwell on the bad things that have happened in their lives, or push through to become champions. Like Kevin says: "Pain builds Courage! You can't be strong, brave and a winner if only good things happen to you."

No one knows that better than Paralympic world champion wheelchair athlete, and motivational speaker Kevin Saunders. Named as one of the top one hundred motivational speakers in the world, he lived through an accident that should have left him dead. As it was, depression, bankruptcy and divorce nearly broke his spirit more than twenty years ago. But with hard work, inspirational faith, and a 'never give up' attitude, he rose from those depths to accomplish what most people - able bodied or not - could ever dream of. In Kevin's moving presentation, you'll hear how he went from hanging on the edge of life to becoming a Paralympic world champion wheelchair athlete and working with two presidents by being the first person with a disability appointed to the Presidents Council on Physical Fitness & Sports. Kevin was appointed by President Bush and was the only person reappointed to that council by President Bill Clinton. Kevin was a featured actor in a hit film with Tom Cruise and helped Kansas State football in “the greatest turnaround in collegiate history.” When he wasn't busy with that, he found time to push his wheelchair across the United States and through 5 countries in Europe serving as an ambassador for fitness. Kevin Saunders also has served as a school speaker, businesses speaker, church speaker, sports team speaker, football speaker, corporate speaker, motivational speaker, inspirational speaker, as well as a motivational coach and inspirational coach.

Kevin's motivational speaking presentations are ideal for anyone, with or without a disability, who wants to get the most out of their life and make a difference. It’s about inspirational faith, positive attitude and gaining the power to never give up and improve every day. That's because his story isn't really about him - it's a testament to the human spirit and the power of deciding to just keep pushing.
