Ep. 4: Disability is Not a Bad Word

In this week's episode I go over my thoughts on the term "disability" and how I am not ashamed to admit that as an entrepreneur, I am still learning and in need of more knowledge on understanding how to help and come alongside the disabled community to push equal rights for all forward as I strive to create an inclusive business.

EDIT to this episode: I mentioned that I apologized about being frustrated after seeing how people in the disabled community are treated, but I do NOT want to apologize, as it is very appropriate to be frustrated as we (and I am apart of the "we") have a lot of work to do toward this goal of inclusivity and equal rights, and I want to use my frustration to only continue to further myself as I learn and seek out ways in which I can give my time and money toward change. I left that segment in to show that I am still human and continuing to learn.
