A little about James...

James Owen Roberts is an accomplished Performance and Success Coach, TEDx speaker, author, and host of The Mindset Athlete Podcast. With over 15 years of experience in exercise, diet, and mindset as a coach, a 2-time Paralympic athlete, and an alum of Swansea University with an undergraduate Bachelor of Science in Sports Science and the University of Chester with a Postgraduate Certificate in Sociology of Sport & Exercise, his story is a testament to his perseverance and resilience.James was diagnosed with hip dysplasia during infancy, but further examination revealed a more severe condition. He had a small fibula, a small tibia, and no femur. The radiographer even remarked that he shouldn't be able to walk, let alone achieve what he has accomplished.

Despite facing obstacles from the very beginning, James persevered. His grandmother expressed her concerns about his future, wondering how he would cope and whether he would be confined to a wheelchair. James found himself alone in the sandpit in primary school while his friends played elsewhere.

Despite this, James found his strength and his passion. He learned to swim butterfly at 11 or 12, much earlier than most. His coach, Mike Stone, and his mother wondered how to turn his disability into an asset. By that time, James had developed a solid upper body.

James faced another setback at 15 when his mother grew frustrated with his academic performance. Despite attending the Belgian Section on the NATO base from 3 to 15, he began to fall behind in high school. He was labeled a failure and even told by one teacher that he wouldn't amount to anything. But James persevered and moved to the American section.

When it came time to apply to universities, James began to doubt himself. He had been told for so long that he wouldn't amount to anything that he began to believe it. He questioned whether he was good enough to attend university and whether he would be out of his depth.

James faced many setbacks in sports, including being dropped by British Swimming at 19 during his first year of university. But despite these setbacks, he never gave up.

After retiring from sport at 26, James spent two years unemployed and lost. But he didn't give up. He decided to join the fitness industry to become a Performance and Success Coach.

James's story is one of perseverance and resilience. Despite facing numerous obstacles throughout his life, he never gave up. His story is an inspiration to anyone who has faced adversity and struggled to overcome it.
