Disability is often framed around limitations, but lived experience brings strengths that can’t be taught - creativity, adaptability, empathy, and resilience. With the right support, people can identify their strengths and build lives, careers, or businesses that work with their disability rather than against it.

Whether through employment, self-employment, creativity, or healing, embracing difference can open doors to meaningful and sustainable pathways.

Michelle's personal story:

I launched my first magazine at 21 and ran it for 10 years before pivoting into a creative agency - all while navigating ADHD and mental health challenges. What once felt like obstacles later revealed themselves as strengths: creativity, big-picture thinking, and adaptability. Now, my greatest passion is helping others see that their disability doesn’t disqualify them - it can become their super power.
