Invisible Wheelchair

A powerful reminder that we all carry something. You will leave seeing yourself and others with more compassion, purpose, and perspective.

Keynote Overview
Invisible Wheelchair is a powerful keynote exploring the universal truth that we all carry something: an invisible challenge, a personal limitation, or a quiet struggle. Through stories of adversity, resilience, and brotherhood, Brent and Kyle Pease invite audiences to reflect on their own “invisible wheelchairs,” and discover how empathy, inclusion, and action can help us all cross the finish line together.

Detailed Keynote Description
In this transformative keynote, Brent and Kyle Pease uncover the deeper meaning behind what Kyle calls the “invisible wheelchair;” the unseen challenges every individual carries, regardless of physical ability. This keynote is based on the idea that everyone faces challenges, whether seen or unseen, and it makes space to honor each person’s unique struggles.

Kyle shares, “We all have an invisible wheelchair. We all have a disability. Some are more noticeable than others… But we all have something we are dealing with.” With this lens, Invisible Wheelchair challenges audiences to recognize the hidden battles within themselves and those around them. Not to see them as weaknesses, but as opportunities for connection, strength, and community.

Brent and Kyle reflect on their own experiences; from navigating now two IRONMAN World Championships together, to building The Kyle Pease Foundation, a foundation centered on improving the lives of people with disabilities through sports and beyond. Listeners will be invited into intimate, real-life stories of resilience, brotherhood, and belief… reminding us that the finish line is more than a moment; it is a journey of shared purpose.

The keynote calls attendees to action, not through pity or pressure, but through presence. As Kyle says, “We don’t have to do it. We get to do it.” Whether it is opening a literal door for someone with a visible disability or opening our hearts to someone silently struggling, Invisible Wheelchair inspires each of us to lead with empathy and support one another forward.

Key Themes:
The power of empathy and shared struggle
Recognizing and honoring invisible disabilities
Shifting from “I have to” to “I get to”
Redefining inclusion in everyday life
Building community through action and presence

Audience Takeaways:
A deeper understanding of how inclusion benefits everyone, not just those with visible disabilities
Tools to create more accessible and emotionally intelligent environments
Personal reflection on their own “invisible wheelchair”
The motivation to take small, meaningful actions that open doors for others

Beyond the Finishby Brent and Kyle Pease

Beyond the Finish

by Brent and Kyle Pease

Diagnosed with cerebral palsy as a child, Kyle Pease had grown up supporting his athlete brothers Brent and Evan from the sidelines. While his condition limited his ability to play sports, it didn’t dampen Kyle’s passion for them, nor did it stop the Pease family from including Kyle in various excursions. From rolling his wheelchair up Bridal Veil Falls in Yosemite National Park to zipping down Colorado snow slopes, there was never a dull moment with the Pease brothers. Where there was a wheel, there was a way to adventure.

Upon witnessing Brent complete his first IRONMAN competition, Kyle asked Brent a life-changing question: “Can people in wheelchairs do IRONMAN?” Brent never hesitated with his response. The answer was a resounding yes. Learning from others and through their own hard work, the brothers competed in IRONMAN competitions around the country and were ultimately awarded the opportunity to participate in the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona, Hawaii. In this memoir that interweaves both their perspectives, Kyle and Brent recount the experiences that shaped the strength, tenacity, and undying bond that has resonated between them since childhood.
