Welcome, and thank you for your interest in being a guest on the We’re Not Stumped podcast!
We’re excited to hear your story and spotlight the incredible work you’re doing to support the disability community. Whether you’re an advocate, nonprofit leader, therapist, inclusive employer, or caregiver, your voice and experience are valuable to our listeners.

🏆 We’re Not Stumped was recognized by Amplitude Magazine as one of the “Six Amputee-Hosted Podcasts to Listen to in 2023.”

🎯 Our Mission

Our podcast was created to amplify the stories and experiences of those living with disabilities—and of those who serve, support, and advocate for them. By sharing real stories and insights, we aim to educate, encourage, and build a more inclusive world.

🎤 What to Expect

Each episode is an authentic, conversational interview recorded remotely via Zoom or in person. Episodes typically run 20–45 minutes (remote) or at least 30 minutes (in person).

We’ll talk about topics like:

1. Your journey into the field
   What inspired you to start working with or advocating for the disabled community?

2. Gaps in the support system
   What do you see as the biggest needs or challenges in the current disability support ecosystem?

3. Stories that inspire you
   Can you share one or more success stories that remind you why you do what you do?

4. Advice for families and caregivers
   What would you say to someone just beginning their journey as a family member, ally, or advocate?

🎧 If there’s anything you prefer not to discuss, please let us know ahead of time. We want you to feel completely comfortable.
