About this listen
"It's really easy to get lost in the rabbit hole of what we can't do, and it's a little bit harder to recognize our abilities, the things we can do, and really hone in on [those things] and instead focus on those things".
"...For those people there's a problem -- no, lets not say problem. Let's say challenge"
Debora Vick founded a non-profit, RareABILITY at the age of 47.
Having spent most of her life battling chronic illnesses, Deborah Vick discusses how she navigates her life and creates her own successes by refusing to accept "disability", and instead emphasizes ABILITY, which is something each individual possesses. Deborah explains her motivations and how she manages to do beyond what the average person does for others, despite the numerous chronic illnesses she has.
