Between Bedrest and Broadcasting: A Journey of Resilience

A Winning Heart

Unexpected challenges often lead to newfound purpose. That's the story behind my latest venture—a mental health podcast called "She Is Her" specifically created for women with disabilities.
From my current bedbound state, I'm launching this platform to address the unique intersection of disability and mental health. Having experienced anxiety and depression alongside my own physical disability, I recognized the need for a space where women could share their stories and connect with others who truly understand. "She Is Her" will air Tuesdays and Thursdays on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, featuring conversations with women brave enough to share their mental health journeys.
My recovery hasn't been straightforward. My orthopedic surgeon recently delivered the disheartening news: "I wish you were doing better at this point." Rather than letting this discourage me, I'm channeling my energy into physical therapy, preparing for eventual hamstring surgery, returning to school for a communications degree, and of course, building this podcast. While physically limited for now, I'm discovering that impact isn't bound by mobility.
If you're navigating the complex terrain of disability and mental health, or if you'd like to share your story on the podcast, please reach out. We can arrange recording sessions via Zoom. Check out "She Is Her" on your favorite podcast platform, and join me in creating a community where vulnerability becomes strength and shared experiences lead to collective healing. Your story matters—let's tell it together.
