Jonni Campbell is the Founder & Co-President of Differently Abled Entertainment, an organization based out of Tucson, Arizona, whose mission is to "promote and encourage differently abled artists in the entertainment industry by producing content featuring their talents." In this episode, Jonni shares with us how living in multiple states as a young child impacted her understanding of diversity and inclusion and helped shaped her perspective as an adult. A wheelchair user following a major accident, Jonni shares how the challenges of an ablest society had forced her to adjust to an environment that was not necessarily designed with her in mind, becoming a staunch disability advocate and launching Differently Abled Entertainment in the process.   This episode does contain some discussion relating to suicide ideation.
