Joanna Paliospirou has put us in touch with people who inspire
through their personal stories because they have achieved something
difficult and admirable despite adverse circumstances.

In her new podcast, she spoke with Stelios Malakopoulos, who after a
very serious car accident in 2015, and while he was already involved
in sports, had to have both legs amputated.

With the help of medical technology, prosthetic limbs specifically,
he not only stood up and walked again, but was named world champion
and "the best athlete with a disability in the country for 2020" in
the Gazzetta Awards voting.
