Powering Through challenges what you think you know about living life with a spinal cord injury. Hosted by quadriplegic content creator and mom, Jessie Owen, the show explores what happens when identity, independence, and the future you imagined shift overnight. Through candid conversations about spinal cord injury, relationships, accessibility, grief, and the everyday absurdities of navigating the world in a power chair, each episode blends honesty and humor with a little edge. This isn’t inspiration theater. It’s real, unfiltered talk about adapting, finding community, and creating a life that’s complicated, surprising, and genuinely worth showing up for.
