Overcome Obstacles
How I Learned to Overcome Obstacles

At birth, I got stuck, and the doctors had to use brute force to get me free, causing severe damage to the brachial nerves in my right arm, leaving me without the use of my arm. While a seemingly impossible challenge at first, my journey taught me valuable lessons about the power of resilience and adaptability.

From Disabled to Adaptive
A Reflection on Redefining Perceptions of Disability

For years, people have used the word disabled to describe physical differences or impairments, and it has become a negative term with a lot of baggage.

This blog post will explore my journey from using the word disabled to embracing the term adaptive and how this language change can impact my personal and society’s perception of disability.

Challenge Yourself
Reach new heights by stepping out of your comfort zone!

Growing up, I believed asking for help signified weakness. However, as I matured, I realized the opposite is true. Facing overwhelming challenges can make us feel defeated, but it's important to remember that seeking assistance is not a sign of giving up. Instead, it's a courageous and strategic move that demonstrates strength and creativity. Having the bravery to ask for help can be the key difference between reaching our goals and ending up with an incomplete plan.
