In life, we come in contact with several different types of people, sometimes fearful and nervous. The purpose of this episode is to discuss how to converse with someone with a disability. I share with you some of my thoughts on how, as a society, we can attempt to lessen the uneasiness of conversation that a new scenario or environment can create. Nervousness can happen anytime we converse with an individual with a diverse background different from our own. I, of course, will focus on conversations between able-bodied and disabled individuals. Please take the time to listen. Remember, we can agree to disagree and should always reach out and talk to our neighbors.

In this podcast, we will discuss the difference between equality and equity. Even though I am not an expert on either, I felt it was important to express my opinion to possibly start positive communication in our communities that may hopefully unite us from one neighbor to another. Remember, we can always agree to disagree and still be friends or, at the very least pleasant and respectful towards one another.

Pick me, pick me! How we all would like to feel included. In this podcast, we will discuss inclusion.
