I've had so many jobs over the years — from babysitter to office administrator — and I didn't know until much later that my struggles in certain environments were connected to being autistic. In this episode, I talk about what it means to navigate workplaces that aren't built for neurodivergent minds, and how universal design could change everything. This is about moving from just "accommodating" us to truly including us.Watch this episode on YouTube.If you'd like to know more about topics discussed in this episode, check out:"Workplace Accommodations and Neurodiversity" by Susanne Bruyère and Adrienne Colella (chapter in Neurodiversity and Work: Employment, Identity, and Support Networks for Neurominorities edited by Eric Patton and Alecia Santuzzi)"Accommodations vs Universal Design" by CultureAlly"Autistic Adults' Views and Experiences of Requesting and Receiving Workplace Adjustments in the UK" by Jade Davies et al.Universal Design: Creating Inclusive Environments by Edward Steinfeld and Jordana Maisel"How Can the Work Environment Be Redesigned to Enhance the Well-Being of Individuals With Autism?" by Michał Tomczak"Autism and the Right to a Hypersensitivity-Friendly Workspace" by Bouke de Vries"'It's Like a Ramp for a Person in a Wheelchair': Workplace Accessibility for Employees With Autism" by Michal Waisman-Nitzan et al.  Theme music: "Everything Feels New" by Evgeny Bardyuzha.

The floor hums, the crowd buzzes, and we're right in the middle of it—broadcasting from the Abilities Expo with Miss Wheelchair Ohio 2025, Alex Martinez. From the moment Alex describes thinking her win was a prank, you feel the shift from title to purpose: turning a crown into a platform that says everyone can dance, and everyone should be seen. We dig into the pageant's reality—serious interviews, playful prompts, an unscripted on-stage question—and how that weekend revealed the heart of her message.Alex takes us inside her platform: the therapeutic power of dance for bodies of every kind. Movement becomes a bigger idea—head nods, eye rhythms, shoulder pulses, joystick pivots, and power chair spins that slice through a chorus. Alex's personal story with spina bifida threads through it all, guided by parents who taught her to do the thing even if it looks different. That mindset meets a rare environment at the Expo where "walkers" are the minority and possibility feels normal.If you care about representation in dance, theater, or media, this conversation offers practical ways to change the stage: teach by intent instead of limb, build adaptive syllabi, cast disabled dancers in lead roles, and let joy be your on-ramp. You'll hear spontaneous hallway dance stories, cultural mashups, and the simple truth that a beat can find anyone. Come for the pageant insights, stay for the choreography ideas, and leave with a new definition of movement that honors the body you live in.Enjoyed the conversation?

In this episode, Jim Stephenson (Senior Market Access Manager at Permobil) and Tamara Kittelson (Executive Director of the Clinician Task Force) unpack recent changes in Medicare's five-year wheelchair replacement policy. They explore what the new rules mean for end users, clinicians, and providers, especially the removal of the face-to-face requirement and the implications for clinical evaluations. Tamara shares her decades of experience in complex rehab technology, her personal journey as an OT and mother, and the mission behind Eleanore's Project, which helps children in Peru access wheelchairs. The conversation also highlights the importance of regular evaluations, advocacy, and the evolving role of clinicians in ensuring optimal seating and mobility outcomes. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the surprising removal of ICD-10 diagnosis codes for seating and positioning products, a change that could improve access but also demands stronger clinical documentation.

Andy Roddick kicks off this episode with a Racket Rundown presented by Wilson to talk about Coco Gauff's victory over Jessica Pegula in the 2025 Wuhan Open. He also talks about the 2025 Shanghai Rolex Masters results where Valentin Vacherot (World No. 204) defeated first cousin Arthur Rinderknech for the title. Andy then sits down with International Tennis Hall of Famer Rick Draney, a pioneer of wheelchair tennis and Tennis Hall of Famer.

He and Andy dive deep into the evolution of wheelchair technology, the rise of global stars like Shingo Kunieda, Esther Vergeer, and Tokito Oda, and the growing junior pipeline that's transforming the sport. COMMENT BELOW How can tennis continue to expand opportunities for adaptive athletes? Who is the greatest wheelchair tennis player of all time?

Story Rolling: Outdoor Wheelchair Access Guest Tina Guenette, Founder, President and CEO of RAMP ( Real Access Motivates Progress) An astonishing number of people rely on wheelchairs and mobility aids... veterans disabled in war... young victims of driving accidents... patients harmed by failed medical procedures... people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases... elderly moving from a cane to a walker and on to a wheel chair, as their bodies age and weaken... and pediatric brain cancer patients being wheeled around in strollers. We all know someone, and yet we are unlikely to see many of these people out and about, because so much of the environment is ill designed for those with restricted mobility. Guest Tina Guenette explains the massive scope of such limited accessibility and brings the bigger story out into the light. Tina is the founder of RAMP, which stands for Real Access Motivates Progress. RAMP is a national non-profit dedicated to smashing barriers for people with disabilities. The organization champions accessibility and promotes equal opportunities through innovation, advocacy and education, fostering a more equitable future for citizens with mobility disabilities. Tina is both a motivational speaker and a living testament to the power of perseverance. After surviving four battles with cancer, multiple strokes and heart attacks, Tina faced her greatest challenge in 2014, when a spinal stroke during routine surgery left her paralyzed from the waist down. Her firsthand experience, navigating a world not built for her, ignited a fire to educate, empower and create systemic change. Refusing to let her wheelchair define her limits, Tina channeled her journey into action and founded RAMP in 2019. As its President and CEO, she fights tirelessly to transform inaccessible spaces and mindsets, proving that true progress begins with inclusion. She shows how we can all make a difference for those less mobile than us, and her impact has earned nationwide acclaim.

I sat down with Jorgé Alfaro – celebrating his 56th birthday and marking 45 years since a childhood shooting left him with a T7 spinal cord injury – for a conversation that crackles with authenticity, humor, and hard-earned wisdom.The energy between us is electric as we discover our shared Chicago-area roots and military backgrounds, bonding over similar journeys despite our different generations. Georgie speaks candidly about facing teenage insecurities after his injury, being "that clown that cries in the night with a big smile." Together we explore how disability forces a complete reinvention of self – a challenging process that ultimately creates strength and purpose.Our conversation delves into the unique perspectives wheelchair users develop, constantly calculating paths 40 feet ahead while "walkers" only worry about what's eight inches in front of them. We explore deeper territory: the vital importance of mentorship, the role of faith in recovery, and our shared mission to serve as "beacons for the lost ships" – guiding others through their own journeys of adaptation and growth. This episode perfectly encapsulates what happens when two people who've faced similar challenges connect through honest conversation, revealing how limitation can transform into liberation when you're determined to live life to the max.

Josh Turek knows how to win. A U.S. Senate candidate, current Iowa State Legislator, and two-time Paralympic gold medalist for Team USA, Josh joins Andrew Vontz & Jonathan Kaplan on United States of Sweat presented by Choose the Hard Way. This is the show where politicians and policymakers share stories about fitness, health and the sports they love playing.  Josh has faced adversity his entire life. Born with Spina Bifida after his dad was exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam, he overcame 21 surgeries by the age of 12. Later he was cut from the Team USA wheelchair basketball squad six times.  Relentless in his training and as a top professional wheelchair basketball player, Josh kept coming back.  He finally made the team and went on to represent the U.S. at four Para-Olympics where he won two gold medals. After his basketball career ended with a gold medal in Tokyo in 2021, Josh campaigned to represent his hometown of Council Bluffs in the state legislature.  Competing in a district that Donald Trump won twice, Josh pushed his chair up hills and crawled up stairs to talk to Iowans of all political stripes, eventually winning his first race by six votes.  He was re-elected by a five-point margin at the same time Trump was winning the seat by eight points, not only because of his work ethic but because he's developed a reputation as a common-sense, bipartisan legislator. --------- Jonathan Kaplan is the founder of WRITE CADENCE STRATEGIES, helping individuals and organizations navigate Washington, shape policy and manage reputational risk.

Wheelchair rugby is a mixed-gender sport, but not many females play. One way to increase their numbers and playing time is to see if they're classified fairly. We talk to Dr. Thomas Rietveld, research associate in wheeled sports and technology at the Peter Harrison Centre for Disability Sport at the University of Loughborough, who worked with Dr. Vicky Tolfrey on a project for World Wheelchair Rugby to reassess the classification system for female players.    We also talked to Dr. Rietveld about his research on wheelchair tennis, which was part of our episode featuring wheelchair tennis player Charlie Cooper.   Learn more about the Peter Harrison Centre for Disability Sport at https://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/phc/ Also on this episode, Milan-Cortina 2026 stores have opened (but not the mega store), NBC announced its Opening Ceremonies team, and the neutral athlete program will be back in place.

On this very special episode of The Great Hang Podcast Myka starts the show with very little energy. Tim does his best to get her into doing the show. We have a Hot Take that is ripped from the headlines of New York's independent news sources. Tim has an Advice pulled up and it's deleted so he switches on the fly and tries to find something fun. This is a fun show. a new Would you rather segment is introduced and is mildly received. We hope you all enjoy tis show and comment and sub or whatever.
