Shellyann Siddoo is a young motivational speaker. 

Three years ago, she was given a unique opportunity to see and explore our magical world with her heart, rather than just her naked eyes. While working in a lab, Shellyann was severely burnt on her face, neck, chest, arms -- she lost her vision, as well as the use of both hands.

 Today, she has turned tragedy into an inspired mission of spreading hope, hugs and love. She is based in Toronto.

Extraordinary Insights:

"Live each day to the fullest regardless of your physical limitations, your circumstances or your situation. Because nothing is happening to you; it is happening for you. Your life is not based on your circumstances, it's based on your choices. With love, faith, belief and determination, everything is possible."
