The stories we tell ourselves shaper our lives. But some simple literary techniques can help us hone in that little voice in our head.

Accessible playgrounds are important for boh children with and parents with disabilities. We all have the right to play!

We always have a choice in how we react to events that happen to us. Getting wet from the rain, can have some beauty in it.

Having a disability does not impede us from having strengths. In reality, having a disability leads us to developing strengths we didn’t know we had, like the capacity to adapt rapidly. This story illustrates just that.

Cleverness in parenting does not require us to be abled-body. It only requires a little bit of creativity!

Parenting can be hard when our children have long days, filled with excitement. As parents, it may then be hard to manage, but this is why parenting is a great social act. When one parent can’t manage, another can take control of the situation. And a disability does not impede our ability to do so.

People with disabilities also want to experience the outdoors, including national parks and beaches. Beaches can be made inclusive with the use of this special wheelchair.

When we see someone with a disability, we too often assume they are dependent and require help. Which leads us to giving assistance quickly, automatically and too often without even asking. Even when help is not warranted nor required.

Because most of us do not know enough about disabilities, our tendencies are to oscillate between wanting to be kind and needing to back off. This conundrum more often paralyses us: should we offer help or should we go on with our own business?

Not everyone likes to workout.

But many will make the effort to access a breath-taking viewpoint!

And even if most of us will want to experience those breath-taking views with the people we love the most, there are still too many of us who won’t have the pleasure to experience it due to lack of accessibility.

No one likes or wants to be left behind! But as a disabled mother, I sometimes don’t have a choice. Because of lack of accessibility, if I want my son to experience the World, it often means I have to let him experience it without me. Read about my choice to staying behind while in Hawai’i.

We all work hard for our money! And it is safe to say that we will do everything to protect what is ours.

But what happens when the call you are getting telling you they are there to protect you is a fraud? Read my story about how I got caught, trusted the wrong person and how much it actually cost me.

Anxiety and back to school for a mom with a spinal cord injury. We all either hate or love the September return back to school time. Very few of us feel indifferent about it anyway.

Access to an Accessible Toilet is a human right .Everyone wants to have access to a toilet when they need. And usually, we want the access to be immediate.

In Celebration of World Physical Therapy Day, I am sharing the 13 lessons every Physiotherapist or healthcare professional should know and apply when working with

Nobody wants to be Hopeless. Because a life without Hope is a life without direction. Sustaining a Spinal Cord Injury shook me at my core.

NOBODY likes to be pushed around. Noone. Not figuratively and not literally. Not as a non-disabled and not as a disabled one.

Air Travel Nightmare We all want to feel safe. And one way of feeling safe is by knowing we are taking care of.

On January 27th 2023, I rolled onto a stage on the spot marked by a red carpet. Behind me stood incredibly large letters that spelled TEDxWesternU and in front of me were about 100 people – most of whom were members of the organisation committee.
