Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In addition to competing internationally and training for the Paralympic Games, you have also been an international speaker, delivering messages all around the world. Tell us how you have been able to achieve and quench your thirst of giving back to the society through this endeavor of yours?
Ms. Mallory Weggemann:
Speaking is one of the greatest gifts I have ever received. I was literally thrown into the speaking world by my father and I am grateful each day that I started on that journey and had the opportunity to do so. One of the greatest rewards in my speaking career is staying following a speech and having the opportunity to talk to the individuals in the audience and hear their own stories. We all have stories unique to us, we all have overcome adversity, experienced heart ache and grown as a result and hearing other individuals’ intimate stories is something that I deeply value. Each time I take the stage it is my hope that by being vulnerable about some of the most intimate moments in my own life that I make a difference for at least one person in the room. That feeling, to truly leave an impact and help others is what it is all about for me.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have made your country as well as the whole world proud with your incredible performances. What fitness tips can you give to the inspiring and budding Paralympic Athletes who all are your fans, for their climb to the ladder of success in the field of Paralympics?
Ms. Mallory Weggemann:
Whatever you do, let it stem from love. Outside of my community the biggest influence in my success as a Paralympic athlete has come from the love and respect that I have for the sport, the Paralympic movement as a whole and the opportunity to represent my country. As long as you are competing for the right reasons and as long as you truly love and respect your sport the rest will come.
Yes, you have to work hard, you have to be willing to work harder than your competitors, you have to make sacrifices, you have to have that drive and determination, but if you truly love it, all of that will come. And above all, do it for yourself, do it because it is what you want, not because it is what someone else wants.
