BBS changed my life and now being in what I call BBS graduate school is even more life-changing because I get to share my story with new women who have come into our beautiful community and encourage them to boundlessly live this life. So if you are a disabled woman who is in need of community, please consider joining us. You won’t regret it. It’s so much fun!

I’m through accepting limits cause someone says they’re so! Something I can not change, til I try I’ll never know. – Elphaba
This real life green girl is doing some advocacy work from home tonight. I’m getting ready to go over our packet for this month and I had to look for my glasses. I really like the way I look in them. 💚
What are you most proud of in your life?
There are a lot of things that I have grown to be proud of. I’m proud that I have embraced my disability. I love that I can genuinely call myself a dancer, instead of saying I take dance classes. I love that I have embraced using my wheelchair and access service to be more independent. I look forward to making my reservations to get where I need to go during the week.

Purple photo taken a year ago. The Marie that I am today actually likes the process of being at PT. The person that I was one year ago had a panic attack in the church parking lot because I did not want to go to therapy at all or wear my braces. I’m a work in progress and some of my goals have changed but I like the person I have become

Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?
It Honestly depends on the day. Sometimes I feel lazy and sometimes it makes me feel rested.
