Chase Akers – Media Producer & Public Speaker

Don’t throw a pity party for Chase, because he’ll just stand you up, even though he has a “dead leg” (Deadleg Media is the name of his company). Born with cerebral palsy, this Nashville native is leaning into his disability with humor and strength, explaining why misery is beautiful. (Yep, he actually makes a case). Breaking the social media code with recent YouTube videos going viral, this son of a musician chronicles his motorcycle life on the road with relatable tales. You can almost feel the wind in your face, while absorbing a life lesson or two from this likeable young man. Also, I bet he can bench more than you.
