  • Let’s Fill Our Cups Together, unapologetically

    Really incredible conversation about communicating boundaries and expecations, prioritize filling your cup, seeing the connections between emotional, mental, and physical health, and living unapologetically. Win is such a great example of how to live out all of these pieces in your life.

E: 7 S: 20 Win Charles interviews Naomi Riley about being a speaker
Q: What is the biggest problem that you see in our society for people with disabilities?
The biggest problem is the abuse rate is very high for people with disabilities, and we need to start addressing the stigma and treating everyone with respect.
E: 7 S: 20 Win Charles interviews Naomi Riley about being a speaker
Q: What do you do not to give up, not to throw in the towel?
I pray a lot. I wake up every morning with gratitude in my heart, and I journal and pray to ask God to guide me.
E: 25 S: 18 Win Charles interviews Andrew Davie on education
Q: What would be your advice to those people who say, Oh, Andrew, you're fine, you're fine, you're perfectly fine?
It's challenging for someone who hasn't experienced something like this to understand; they often want to solve problems instead of just existing with the person during their recovery.
E: 25 S: 18 Win Charles interviews Andrew Davie on education
Q: What would be your advice for those who have loved ones with brain aneurysm recovery?
Climb down into the hole with them and say, I can listen and I can be here with you as you're trying to heal and do better.

Q: What is a regular day like in your life?
I wake up early, check my emails, and rely on aides for assistance due to my physical restrictions. I use a walker and a power chair for mobility.
