#Sydney2000 was the birth of my Paralympic dream!
As a 12-year-old, I sat high in the stands watching @ausparalympics` Amy Winters and Meaghan Starr proudly represent the green and gold. Seeing athletes with one arm, just like me, was the first time I ever said aloud: "I want to compete in the Paralympics."
When Amy visited my school and showed us her gold medal after the Games, I felt so proud to have one arm and be part of the disability community.
My family and I saw as many Olympic and Paralympic events as we could in Sydney! I can still remember sitting with my family and friends, screaming as we watched Cathy Freeman win gold in the 400m 🤩 It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.
It`s crazy to think my girls will be a similar age as I was when we host #Brisbane2032. I can`t wait to create memories with them that they`ll still reminisce on 25 years from now.

It’s giving Cher 70s & 80s vibe 🤣 💃🕺
My cheeks are still sore from laughing so much at Josie’s primary school ‘Viva Las Vegas’ fundraising night 🪩♣️
I’m used to the stage - but not like this 🙈 It’s much easier to step outside your comfort zone and be a little silly when you’re supported by such a beautiful community.
We also smashed our fundraising goal which was the cherry on top of a fantastic night!

@jessicatatianalong turned anger into gold 🥇
For years, the 6x American Paralympian channeled her anger into a competitive fire - a constructive force that has won her over 8️⃣0️⃣ Paralympic and World Championships medals 🤯
But when she won her 18th Paralympic gold at #Paris2024 this time last year, something was different. She wasn`t swimming for anger anymore - she was swimming for her own self-worth.
Jess talks about her journey transitioning from using anger as a tool, to finding a deeper sense of purpose and belonging.
This is a powerful reminder that we can take the energy from our struggles and channel it into something incredible, and that eventually, the greatest victory is the one you earn for yourself.

The @ausparalympics 4x100m mixed medley relay team might have come from all corners of Australia, all walks of life, having overcome their own individual challenges to compete at #Paris2024, but this time last year, the friendship and camaraderie that bonded them as teammates helped them create history in Paris! 🥇
A beautiful reminder of the power of friendship and community when chasing your dreams 💚💛
What a remarkable and memorable moment for @jesse.aungles, @timhodge284, @em_beecroft, @alexa_leary, @keirastephenss and @callum.simpson.ply
