As summer approaches, host Kevin Nunez marks a major milestone—his 20th high school reunion. Looking back at his time as a young man with a visible disability navigating a mainstream public school of 2,700 students, Kevin reflects on the literal and metaphorical pitfalls he fell into.

​From accidentally steering his wheelchair into a bush to avoid crowded school hallways, to facing down an intimidating intake officer at the Social Security office at age 18, Kevin shares the raw, unvarnished realities of growing up disabled. He breaks down why we need to move past "inspiration porn" on social media and focus on genuine peer mentoring, building thick skin, and embracing failures as catalysts for major success (like getting a standing ovation at his high school talent show!).

​This episode is a must-listen for disabled youth (ages 18–25), parents, transition coordinators, and anyone ready to look past the stereotypes and bridge the gaps together.

​"Disability and death are the only two strategies in life. There is a misconception in our world that disability will not affect anyone, when the fact is, it affects all of us." — Kevin Nunez
