Keynote - Challenging The Limits Of Your Mindset & Beliefs
Be inspired to challenge your limiting beliefs and mindsets with Dr Dinesh's power story of challenges and resilience. A thought leader in the field of personal development or a renowned motivational speaker will delve into how changing one's mindset can lead to breakthroughs in professional and personal life.
Midway through medical school, Dinesh Palipana sustained a spinal cord injury in a catastrophic car accident. Faced with the daunting prospect of physically and emotionally rebuilding, Dinesh never surrendered his ambition to practise medicine, instead viewing the profession through the prism of his experience.
Dinesh went on to graduate and is now an emergency doctor at Gold Coast University Hospital. He is the first medical graduate in Queensland with quadriplegia.
Dinesh is also a lawyer, a disability advocate, a researcher, and a lover of cars, chocolate and '90s hip-hop. In 2021 Dinesh was Queensland Australian of the Year. Dinesh's story is one of triumph over adversity, of seizing control over life in impossible circumstances.
