Two Disabled Dudes

270 - RDD 2025 with Jett Foundation: "Disability Doesn’t Define Us!"


Listen Later

In partnership with Jett Foundation, we roll into an inspiring conversation with a powerhouse panel of guests who prove that nothing—not even a ridiculously expensive adaptive wheelchair—can keep them from chasing their dreams. From power soccer to adaptive paragliding (yes, that’s a thing!), our guests share how nonprofits, grants, and a little creative Googling can help make adventure accessible.

But it's not just about the gear—it's about mindset. Whether it’s treating life like a video game (level 29 and counting!), finding joy in teaching, meditating, or simply savoring a slice of pizza, these folks remind us that happiness is about perspective. Challenges? Sure. But as they say, keep moving forward, embrace the highs, and never underestimate the power of a good support system (or a really good cup of coffee).

Special thanks to the Jett Foundation and everyone making life a little more accessible, one grant, goal, and friendship at a time. Keep living with urgency, folks—because the next level is right around the corner! 🚀♿🎉
