In this episode of Gems From Friends, I speak with Janelle Skinner, a counseling psychologist and disability advocate whose story challenged me deeply.
Janelle shares what life has been like navigating disability for 26 years, from grief and adjustment, to accessibility, work, faith, family, and purpose. She offers a powerful look into the daily realities many people never stop to consider, while also reminding us that persons with disabilities are not defined by limitation, but by value, creativity, and contribution.
This conversation is honest, eye-opening, and full of perspective.
