Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
This episode is a powerful and refreshingly honest conversation with Benen Dykstra, a 28-year-old storyteller, voice-over artist, audiobook narrator, and creator of the Sit Down, Stand Out Show. Born prematurely and living with spastic cerebral palsy, Benen shares his journey of navigating physical challenges, independence, accessibility, and the misconceptions people often have about individuals with disabilities. Most importantly, he talks about his determination to prove that a disability does not define a person's intelligence, dreams, talent, or potential.
With plenty of humor, honesty, and a little bit of sass, Benen opens up about everything from exhausting energy levels and navigating the world in a wheelchair to pursuing his passion for broadcasting, acting, voice-over work, and professional wrestling commentary. He shares how the challenges of graduating just before COVID inspired him to create a platform where people with disabilities could share their stories and truly “sit down and stand out.” His biggest message is one that applies to everyone: find your passion, stick with it, and don't let other people's expectations determine what you are capable of achieving.
