Happy 22nd anniversary, Wicked!! Today on the podcast, I address the perception of disabled people being lucky to receive attention from non-disabled people and why that perception hurts our community

In this episode, I share the story of why I started the podcast and outline my vision for the future as a podcast host and public speaker.

As usual, I'm waiting to get into dance class. I'm so excited that the anniversary of Encouragement Notes is Tuesday

I recorded this episode a few days ago, and it got cut off on Instagram. This is the full update on my ability to get up off the floor independently. It's still something that I need to work on and get back in my body again, but I know that I'm fully capable

this episode is for my followers in the disability community. I have been struggling with my movement, specifically getting up off the floor when I'm in my room and frankly that is why I have not done many podcast episodes lately because my bedroom is my office. do you deal with physical movement? fear if you do, what have you done about it?

There are so many painful things going on in the world today. I hope everyone is safe. I also wanted to take time to share a piece of my story.

Support your local PBS station and watch the documentary The Ride Ahead. It's fantastic!

sharing the gratefulness I feel for my community and how it has helped me grow

I kept this one short and sweet. honestly I just woke up but I wanted to make sure I kept my promise today because I had been promising this episode for a few days now
