About this listen

Let’s be real—people are unfamiliar with people with disabilities. At Move United, we believe sports have the power to change the world, pushing people further and bringing people closer. Through adaptive sports, we show what people with disabilities are capable of, fuel candid conversations, and incite the action it takes to build a world where everyone’s included. Redefining Disability is a podcast that focuses on the power of sport. Move United is looking forward to sharing how sports have made it possible for our nation’s top adaptive athletes, training tips from the best coaches and program leaders, and news on latest technology, equipment, and trends in the adaptive sports industry.© 2026 Redefining Disability Move United Hygiene & Healthy Living Social Sciences

    Josh Pauls was born without a tibia in both legs and had them both amputated at 10 months old. At age eight, he would be introduced to the game of sled hockey. Within eight years of first trying out the sport, he was called up to his first world championship team. Pauls made his Paralympic debut at the Paralympic Winter Games Vancouver 2010, where he was the youngest player on the team at 17. He would later serve as captain for the U.S. sled hockey team at the 2018 and 2022 Paralympic Games. Pauls is the only sled hockey player to win four Paralympic gold medals. He is the author of “Lessons Learned: My Journey to the Podium” and hopes to be a professional hockey coach when his sled hockey career is finished.
