Mediability

What an awesome morning! 💜 Today I had the privilege of virtually sharing my story and leading meaningful discussions about disability with four high school classes at San Jacinto Christian Academy in Amarillo, TX. We talked about respect, dignity, inclusion, acceptance, and looking beyond appearances to get to know the person. I shared encouragement, challenged assumptions, and offered some practical dos and don’ts for treating people with disabilities with kindness and consideration. At the heart of it all: we are each created in God’s image, with value and purpose. A disability doesn’t change that. And, of course, I loved wrapping up with Q&A…because let’s be honest—everyone has a question for the lady with no legs. 😉 Making room for thoughtful questions is one way we grow in understanding! A huge thank-you to their teacher and my friend, Sandi, for reaching out and inviting me into these conversations, and to the students for spending part of their morning with me. This is why I share my story. If it helps someone see another person—and their own possibilities—a little differently, it matters. 💜 #DisabilityAwareness #DisabilityAdvocate #InclusionMatters #AskDontAssume #SeeThePerson
