32 - What It's Like Having a Partner with a Disability
Everyone I interview for this podcast is special, but I have to admit today's guest might be the most special. Today, we're talking my husband, Scott, about what it's like to have a partner with a disability.
We also talk about:
- His version of our first date and that memorable evening?
- We’re coming up on the fifteenth anniversary of our first date. Scott talks about what he has learned in 15 years of having a partner with a disability.
- What are challenges he continues to experience.
- How he is affected by my increasing physical challenges as I get older.
- How he thinks society can change to be more open to seeing people with disabilities as dating and relationships partners.
- Advice he would give for someone with a disability in search of dating success and healthy relationships.
- And advice for people without disabilities who may become partners.
Where Do We Go From Here?
- Download the Bringing Your Disability Into Relationships guide in the show notes to help you in getting clear and feeling empowered about your disability in relationships.
