Join us for a heartfelt episode as we celebrate the life of Tess Pearce, a remarkable individual who embraced life with cerebral palsy and refused to let her challenges define her. Tess's mother, Sandi Pearce, shares the story of her incredibly intelligent and kind daughter who fought for equality her entire life.

Tess's journey was filled with determination and support from her family, especially her inspiring mother, Sandi. Although she faced social challenges at school due to her disability, Tess remained determined to succeed academically. She pursued her dreams, and even in the face of adversity, she never lost her positive spirit.

While living in Melbourne, Tess pursued her interests in animal welfare, music, and health while studying social services at Deakin University. Her aim was to work in disability, LGBT advocacy, or case management.

Unfortunately, Tess's life was cut short last year, leaving Sandi grappling with grief and seeking closure amidst the ongoing circumstances. 

In this episode, we honour Tess's legacy of equality and determination, celebrating the impact she made on those who knew her. Join us as we remember Tess Pearce, her unyielding spirit, and her mission to promote equality and happiness for all, regardless of their background or abilities.
