In this episode of the Cerebral Palsy Perspective Podcast, Chad Williams and Daryl Perry are joined by Jason Harvey for a powerful roundtable discussion.

Jason shares his story of growing up with cerebral palsy affecting his left side and how he built an incredible athletic journey competing in baseball throughout high school and college, all while playing one-handed.

We talk through his early diagnosis, the challenges he faced being held back in youth sports, and the resilience it took to continue pursuing what he loved despite setbacks, criticism, and doubt. Jason opens up about moments of bullying, perseverance, and the impact of finding the right support system along the way.

The conversation also dives into life after sports, adapting to physical changes over time, staying active through golf and physical therapy, and navigating what it means to age with cerebral palsy.

Jason also shares his passion for coaching, teaching, and his vision for creating more opportunities for adaptive athletes in the future.

This is a conversation about perseverance, identity, and the reality of building your own path when it doesn’t look like everyone else’s.
