Why Am I So Short? with Kevin Cekanor

Got burning questions about dwarfism? Kevin Cekanor wants you to ask away. The speaker, author, photographer, disability advocate and athlete hopes to dismantle stigmas about dwarfism with more conversations. His inspiration? His mother’s impromptu visit to his kindergarten class to talk about his appearance. Kevin professes that self-doubt has been his biggest disability and a constant battle in spite of fulfilling his sporting dreams of participating in the World Dwarf Games as part of Team USA.

“Why am I so short?” also explores Kevin’s family dynamics and how he redirected his furlough into purpose: writing his life story and developing a Kev Shorts social media series. He also shares how a red envelope spurred his latest endeavor, 4FT5 Photography. Kevin wraps up the podcast with his life’s motto — “Who or what you are in partnership with will either put you into paralysis, or your purpose.”
