Disability rights are human rights. Social equity, inclusion, universal design and aging-in-place. Realist. Idealist. Kindness matters. #GoHigh She/her

My “special needs” are nothing more than human needs. Disabled people are not a burden.

When providing access, there is one thing that you should do first and foremost and it is almost always ignored: Ask disabled people.

We are not what we do, what we wear, what we think, or what we feel. Our true nature is something beyond all of this. #mindfulness

If you don’t realize that disability discrimination is as serious as other forms of discrimination, you are devaluing the lives of 25% of the population.

It is #RareDiseaseDay! What do you think of when you hear #RareDisease? I would bet that it’s not me. It’s so important to remember that so many rare diseases & #disabilities are INVISIBLE #ShareYourRare #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #EDS #InvisibleDisabilities #RareDiseaseDay2021

Add joy, for joy's sake, to every day! Thank you, Gurdeep, for being a light in the world!
Last evening, I was on @etalkCTV with host Sonia Beeksma. You also see my kitchen & those blue jugs. I don't have running water, they're my water. I've been living my life the way folks used to live decades ago. I'm happy with my simple, ordinary and minimalistic life I chose.

Vulnerability is not the opposite of resilience. Vulnerability builds resilience. Projecting perfection protects your ego but shuts people out and stunts your growth. Revealing struggles shows humility and humanity, opening the door to new sources of support and strength.

Get 'em Bernie!
Today, I asked the CEOs of Walmart and McDonald's a simple question: Why should taxpayers subsidize the starvation wages of their profitable corporations. If they think they can avoid answering this question because they declined to testify at my hearing they are sorely mistaken.
