  • Criticizing Natural Beauty? That’s the Real Impediment!

    Passing derogatory comments about someone's natural beauty and unique way of communicating is, in itself, a speech impediment.

    Keep up the awesome work, Sara—you’ve inspired me to binge-listen to all the podcasts! Frankly, I didn’t even notice anything until I read that lame review’s by those ‘Ableists.’

    I guess they’re not in the beauty industry—because if they understood beauty, they’d recognize yours!
