👩‍⚕️ **Michelle Turner** (Founder of Movement Lesson™) shares her journey with her son’s medical challenges and the importance of relentless encouragement.
💬 **Kayla Ireland** (Founder of Kindly Neurodivergent with Kay) discusses her experiences with cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and overcoming barriers, with special focus on how people often don’t realize what she *can* do.

🔥 **Why This Episode Matters:**

So often, we hear “You can’t,” but that is rarely the final truth. It’s not about what someone can’t do, it’s about what they haven’t been shown yet. Through stories of determination, persistence, and finding the right support, this episode challenges everyone to think differently about what is possible.

💬 “Just because someone hasn’t done something doesn’t mean they can’t—sometimes, they just haven’t been given the right tools or opportunities.”
💬 “Every little progress counts, and that’s what leads to great achievements.”
