Description
As we close out 2025, Walk and Roll Live – Disability Stories takes a moment to reflect on the conversations that moved us, challenged us, and inspired us throughout the year.
In this special year-end wrap-up episode, host Doug Vincent revisits powerful stories from guests who shared their lived experiences with disability — stories of survival, resilience, self-advocacy, and transformation. From navigating life after injury or diagnosis, to breaking down barriers, educating others, and redefining independence, these conversations remind us that disability is not the end of the journey — it’s often the beginning of a new one.
This episode highlights memorable guests including Rebeca Valenzuela, Walt Escamilla, Ryan Chavarria, Robert Soto, Donald Allison, Anna Keibler, Kat, Bob Millsap, Willie Stewart, Carl Vereen, and voices from the adaptive sports and Paralympic community.
We also look ahead to 2026, where Walk and Roll Live will continue amplifying diverse disability voices, exploring real-life transitions, sharing advocacy tools, and fostering understanding across the full disability spectrum — including visible and invisible disabilities.
Whether you’re living with a disability, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking authentic human stories, this episode celebrates where we’ve been — and where we’re rolling next. Walk and Roll Live
