Jessica Cox: Soaring Without Limits as the World's First Armless Pilot (ep. 776)

Jessica Cox was born without arms, but she’s never let that stop her from soaring. A certified pilot, fourth-degree black belt in Taekwondo, author, global speaker, and advocate for people with disabilities, Jessica is also the visionary behind The Impossible Airplane, a first-of-its-kind aircraft designed to be flown entirely by foot. Her life is a powerful reminder that our greatest limitations are often the ones we place on ourselves.

Today, Jessica shares how she turned “Why me?” into “Why not me?” She opens up about her journey to becoming the world’s first armless pilot, the faith that helped her push past fear, and the creativity required to thrive in a world not built for her body. She talks about the love story that began in a martial arts class, the plane she’s building to inspire kids around the world, and the freedom that comes from radical self-acceptance.

My friends, if you’ve ever doubted your worth or felt held back by fear, this conversation is for you. Jessica’s story will reignite your belief in what’s possible. You’ll walk away with a renewed sense of courage, fresh perspective on your own challenges, and the reminder that with faith, resilience, and a little ingenuity, nothing is out of reach.
