She was told she wouldn’t live past infancy. Now she’s a mum of four, an author, speaker, MBA recipient — and living proof that disability does not define your destiny.

In this powerful and moving episode of Talk Healing to Me, host Karen Dwyer sits down with Sarah Griffiths (@wheelie.momma) to unpack what it really means to live a full life in a world that wasn’t built for you.

From battling chronic pain and depression, to choosing her wheelchair as a tool of empowerment, Sarah shares her journey of self-acceptance, advocacy, and building a life that works for her. Whether you’ve feared losing mobility, struggle with invisible illness, or just need a reminder that healing doesn’t have one look — this conversation will shift the way you see strength, motherhood, and success.
