Jessica and I don't agree on much when it comes to being diagnosed with health conditions. Jessica has achondroplasia. I have autoimmune diseases. Jessica calls herself "differently abled". I go by "disabled". Is there any common ground we can find? Can we pull together a roadmap to help you better act around, talk to, and include disabled and differently abled people? The short answer is yes... but come to our TEDx talk to find out how.
