Episode 10: "Mobility and Communication, How Can It Be This Hard?"

Episode 10: "Mobility and Communication, How Can It Be This Hard?"

In this episode of PT Confessionals, Wes and Corinne open up about the daily frustrations that come with using a wheelchair that’s not quite working right. From misaligned seating and frustrating repairs to how mobility challenges impact independence and mood, they unpack what it feels like when the very thing meant to support you ends up slowing you down. Wes shares recent situations where poor positioning or mechanical issues led to discomfort or communication breakdowns, especially in social settings or during important moments.


But this episode isn’t just about what’s going wrong—it’s about finding solutions. Wes and Corinne shift the conversation toward the ways adaptive tech, especially communication devices, can be used more strategically. They brainstorm ways to make conversations feel more natural, less transactional, and more responsive—especially when speed and spontaneity are a challenge. Whether it’s customizing message categories, experimenting with timing, or leaning on humor, they explore how small changes could make a big difference in helping communication feel more fluid and more you.


Tune in for a vulnerable and hopeful conversation about turning mechanical roadblocks into opportunities for growth, and reimagining assistive tech not just as a tool—but as a voice.
