In this episode of The Calgary Sessions, I sit down with Alvin Law, a Hall of Fame speaker whose story challenges assumptions and reshapes perspectives. Born without arms due to thalidomide, Alvin shares how he turned what many saw as a limitation into a life filled with creativity, impact, and connection.
We explore his upbringing in rural Saskatchewan, where community and his foster parents instilled a mindset of independence and possibility. Alvin reflects on his journey as a musician, his passion for jazz, and the mentors who helped him thrive in unexpected ways. He talks about the pivotal role of humor, the realities of navigating a world not built for him, and his thoughts on how face-to-face interactions shape genuine human connection.
Alvin’s story isn’t about overcoming—it’s about creating a life that fits you, on your own terms. Whether it’s his perspective on the history of thalidomide, his shift from radio to public speaking, or his take on staying curious and present, this conversation offers honest insights into what it means to live fully.
