In the Spin of a Wheel is the powerful true story of Ted – a high-
achieving athlete, leadership consultant, and passionate
outdoorsman – whose life changed in an instant on ANZAC Day
2009. A cycling accident left him with a broken neck and spinal
cord injury, unable to move anything below his neck for the start
of his next journey.
From a childhood spent in the water and on his bike, to
representing top-level teams in numerous sports, Ted loved his
sport. He later turned this passion into purpose, completing
university studies in Business Management, Psychology, Social
Psychology, Positive Psychology and Sports Studies. He also
founded a leadership consultancy that worked with professional
sports and business leaders alike.
But everything shifted in the spin of a wheel.
Told with honesty, grit, and quiet optimism, this is a story of
profound transformation – of adapting to life with limited mobility,
of redefining identity beyond physical ability, and of the fierce
devotion of a partner who never left his side.
In the Spin of a Wheel is a deeply human reminder that life may
change in an instant, but courage, connection, and purpose can
still endure – and even flourish.
In the Spin of a Wheel doesn’t just tell a story – it offers insights.
Woven through Ted’s journey are practical tools and reflections
that anyone can apply to life’s toughest moments. From mindset
shifts to small daily strategies, the book shares lessons in
resilience, purpose, and adapting when life doesn’t go to plan.
Whether you’re navigating change, supporting someone through
hardship, or simply looking for inspiration, there’s something in
these pages you can take with you.
