19. Alex Lewis

Fashion Weekly Podcast With Miranda Holder

If you are feeling at all low today, I urge you to listen to today's episode with quadruple amputee Alex Lewis who is quite simply the most inspiring human I have ever met. Despite his shocking story and challenging circumstances, Alex is a shining example of living life to the fullest and making the most of what you have.

Aged 34, Alex was suddenly rushed to hospital after suffering from ‘man flu’ which turned out to be something far more sinister and found himself fighting for his life. He ended up surviving but lost all four limbs and his nose and mouth in the process.

Most of us would have spiralled into despair and self-pity after something like this, but the remarkable Alex has taken a truly inspirational approach to what happened to him, and despite his considerable challenges, calls these recent years the best of his life.

Since becoming a quadruple amputee, Alex has found a new zest for life, and his positivity and determination is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

In this chat, Alex shares his story, the many challenges he faces, his incredible achievements in the last seven years and his dreams for the future - as well as his considerable love for all things fashion!

This is such an uplifting and powerful listen!
