2025 Luminosity Youth Summit 20 Emma Carey Emma Carey is a writer, artist, speaker and entrepreneur. After following her love for travel and adventure around the world, she found herself in Switzerland where an unexpected near-death experience completely altered her life. She defied all odds by surviving a skydiving accident that broke her spine and left her a paraplegic, she defied them once more by learning to walk again after doctors told her she wouldn’t. Following the turbulence and transformation of her accident, she has been on a mission to share her unique story in the hope to inspire and enhance the lives of those around her. She has amassed over 190,000 Instagram followers and is now a famed author of the book The Girl Who Fell from the Sky. Emma feels excited about this next chapter in her life - moving forward from what happened to her and rediscovering her love of travel and adventure. Emma will be speaking about an experience she had at twenty years old that altered not only her physical body but the way she views the world. Although Emma’s accident was traumatic and difficult, she believes it taught her countless lessons and she shares her story with the aim to give others an insight into those lessons, without having to go through the trauma themselves. She focuses on perspective shifting, appreciation (for both life and all your body can do for you), gratitude, resilience, acceptance, adaptability and ends with her take away message of ‘if you can, you must’. Emma will also explain what it truly felt like to think she was moments away from death, as well as what it’s like to live with a spinal cord injury and the process of learning to walk again.
