🔥 “She’s sitting RIGHT THERE… so why are you asking someone else, ‘Can she eat this?’” 🤦♀️😂
This week on Zelocast – Glow with the Flow, our good friend Kak Fadiah joins us in the studio—and somehow gets caught in the middle of our usual nonsense. 😂
But today’s listener emails bring up something many PWDs can relate to.
One listener wants more independence, but parents aren’t quite ready to let go.
Another asks a much simpler question:
Why do people talk ABOUT us… when they can just talk TO us?
From awkward encounters with strangers to some seriously funny misunderstandings, we chat about independence, overprotective families and what happens when people assume a disability means someone can’t speak, hear or make their own decisions.
Sometimes helping doesn’t need to be complicated.
Just ask. Just talk to us. We’re right here! 😂
And trust us… Kak Fadiah, Alex & Zyana have a few stories of their own. 👀
