Episode 8 Billy Price of BILLY Footwear: Adaptive Footwear for People with Disabilities
After a fall left Billy Price paralyzed from the chest down, he lost the ability to move much of his body, including his fingers. Not only did he suddenly face mobility challenges, but daily tasks that he took for granted, such as putting on clothes, became much more difficult. Throughout the years he learned tricks for getting dressed more easily and found a handful of clothing companies that catered to the adaptive community. That said, the one piece of clothing that always eluded him was shoes—he never found a pair of shoes that he felt were both attractive and that he could put on independently.
It is clear that the world is ready for greater inclusion in fashion. Everybody is unique and we all want to express ourselves and feel confident. BILLY Footwear is proud to be a part of this movement.

Episode 7 Medical Self-Advocacy for Adults with Disabilities
As an adult with Cerebral Palsy, Donna R. Gore has run into situations not readily covered by personal physicians. Most resources and treatments are geared towards children as those with the disability aren't expected to live a long life.
She has run the gamut of self diagnosis to putting together a "dream team" of doctors and recources to have her needs met.
Donna will share her personal outcomes and advice for others who may be going down the same path and not know where to turn for the best care.
