Jessica Cox

I believe in a future where people passionately pursue their dreams with the resilience to overcome any challenge.

Some people describe my speech as one, "no one will ever forget." I share with audiences around the globe how to inspire enthusiasm and build authentic confidence. With the goal of showing people hot to go home from work every day feeling excited for tomorrow, I teach how to courageously tackle new challenges with creativity and unrelenting drive.

Born without arms, I am fascinated by the limitless ways the human body can adjust to a variety of circumstances. In my own life, I have utilized dormant physical traits to adapt and use my feet the way people use their hands. As I learned to conquer physical barriers, I developed mental skills that allowed me to go on to achieve the seemingly impossible.

I am best known for becoming the first armless pilot in aviation history. My achievement earned a Guinness World Record medal, has been a trending topic on Facebook, and featured on tv programs such as Fox and Friends, Ellen, Inside Edition, Oprah Winfrey Network, CNN, CBS Evening News, and the BBC.

My other accomplishments include earning or becoming:

- The first black belt and a state champion in the American Taekwondo Association

- A certified scuba diver

- A sought after YouTube and social media influencer

- One of Plane and Pilot Magazine's "Top 10 Pilots"

I am also the author of the self-help/autobiographical book "Disarm Your Limits."

My unconventional views on how to overcome a challenge have earned international invitations to more than 20 countries from companies including Boeing, GE, Oerlikon, Nestle, State Farm, AT&T, NASA, US Air Force, Johnson & Johnson, IBM, JP Morgan Chase, Smithsonian, AXA, and Mahindra. My life story is also the subject of the award-winning documentary "Right Footed" that aired on National Geographic in more than 80 countries.

I enjoy continuing to take on new challenges including slacklining and rock climbing. I try to give back to the global disability community as the Goodwill Ambassador for the Nobel Prize winning NGO Humanity & Inclusion. At home, my passion is mentoring children with limb differences and their parents.
