Fascinating MMP episode with Nathan Shipley founder of Rolling with Nathan! Meeting Mighty People

Hello Everyone, This month I am proud to introduce Nathan Shipley to the show. This interview is more of an authentic conversation between people with unique types of Cerebral Palsy. Where we make each other laugh and have a valuable and relatable conversation.  This was such an eye-opening interview because Nathan was born with Cerebral  Palsy Spastic Quadriplegia. In this interview we learn what life was like for Nathan when he was in elementary and high school. Back then accessibility was not a high priority which made it harder for the diverse community. It is cool to see how  society has adapted to include more nowadays, in such ways of making universal design part of the standards. Hiring people with multi talents and engineers to point out potential barriers to all  types of people. We also talked about barriers, success and accommodations required for Nathan to graduate secondary school with a dogwood living with what must be a dark feeling to have that type of diverse need and feel and need to be very reliable on others to live your life to its fullest potential. Happy listening and I hope you all enjoy this fascinating episode with Nathan Founder of Rolling With Nathan. Congratulations Nathan. I would like to say thank to all my Meeting Mighty People Podcast listeners for their support and patience. — Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alexisfolk/message
