Resilience Mindset

Breaking the Barriers Podcast with Cory Schwarzkopf

Justine Martin Queen Of Resilience

Cory, a devoted husband, father, and passionate advocate for invisible disabilities. A former manhole builder in civil construction, Cory’s life took an unexpected turn when he was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, a degenerative joint disease. What started as unexplained aches and pains soon led to a life-changing diagnosis that forced him to rethink his career, health, and future.

Now transitioning into a new field, Cory is studying for a Certificate III in Individual Care for Age and Disability, determined to give back and support others facing challenges of their own. His journey is one of resilience, adaptation, and a refusal to let a diagnosis define his future.

Through his love for fishing, music, and family, Cory stays grounded, reminding himself daily of what truly matters. His message is clear: "Check in with yourself and others. It’s okay not to be okay, and asking for help is not a weakness."
