Back to Episodes"You Don’t Look Disabled: Randy Schlecht’s Journey with Traumatic Brain Injury"
Description
In this open & honest episode of Walk and Roll Live, we kick off Invisible Disabilities Month with guest Randy Schlecht, a traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivor. Randy opens up about his early life, the event that changed everything, and his long path to recovery. Unlike visible disabilities, Randy’s challenges aren’t always obvious to others—and that leads to misunderstanding, misjudgment, and stigma.
He shares what it’s like to live with an invisible disability, how it affects the way people perceive him, and why society needs to broaden its understanding of what disability looks like. This is a raw and enlightening conversation that sheds light on the hidden struggles and strength of those living with TBI and other invisible conditions. Walk and Roll Live
