Spencer West, Global Speaker, Disability Advocate, Author of Breaking Free Spencer West is an internationally recognized keynote speaker, content creator, author, and disability advocate known for redefining what’s possible. Born with a rare genetic condition that resulted in the loss of his legs at age five, Spencer has inspired millions through his storytelling, humor, and powerful message of resilience. He first gained global attention after summiting Mount Kilimanjaro on his hands and in his wheelchair, a journey featured in the documentary Redefine Possible, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. Spencer is the author of the bestselling memoir Standing Tall, and his forthcoming book, Breaking Free: Stop Following Expectations and Start Following Yourself (Hay House, May 2026), offers a deeper and more vulnerable look at how we can shed limitations, embrace identity, and live authentically. With more than 4 million TikTok followers and a strong presence across Instagram and YouTube, Spencer uses his platform to challenge assumptions about disability and belonging. His story has been featured by ABC News, CBS This Morning, CTV, and in The Globe and Mail, among others. Based in Toronto, Spencer continues to champion inclusion, disability representation, and 2SLGBTQ+ visibility through his speaking, digital content, and advocacy.
