What would you do if life as you knew it changed in an instant? In this episode I chat with Hazem Slater, a former fighter pilot whose world turned upside down due to osteosarcoma, which ultimately lead to triplegia.
Hazem Slater's journey is one of resilience and determination. Diagnosed with spinal osteosarcoma at the age of 14, Hazem overcame this formidable challenge, later joining the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) and progressing to the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). When illness redirected his career path from piloting to law, Hazem continued to secretly battle the recurrence of osteosarcoma.
Throughout his journey, he has become a powerful disability advocate, speaking up for the oppressed. Today, Hazem is the director of the award-winning Wick Coffee, where he continues to inspire and lead with unwavering strength and dedication.
This episode is a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the impact of maintaining a positive outlook, seeking support and helping others amidst life's biggest challenges.
