I am a DISABLED woman
In her segment, Emilee will discuss her own experiences of growing up with a disability, how she overcame obstacles to walk with confidence everyday, and how she turned it into a social media movement that promotes disability awareness and education. She will look at redefining the definition of disability and putting a positive spin on something that is often viewed as negative.
