Today’s guest offers more than a personal story—she offers a truth we all need to sit with. Our abilities are not uniform, and the person we assume is “less able” may, in fact, be navigating the world with a strength, skill, and capability far beyond what we can see.Jenna Udenberg, a lifelong Northshore Minnesotan and former music educator of 19 years, has used a manual wheelchair since age eight due to Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. She is a 2017 Blandin Foundation Community Leader and a 2020 Bush Fellow. Through her Lake County Press column, Local View from 4 Foot 2, she invites readers into vulnerability, perspective, and the lived experience of moving through the world from a seated vantage point. When she’s not writing, Jenna is outdoors on paved trails, fishing with friends, playing board and card games, or Coaching the Robo Dweebs LEGO robotics team.This conversation widened my understanding in ways I didn’t expect. Jenna reminds us that empathy, awareness, and acceptance aren’t abstract ideals—they’re daily practices. And perhaps the real shift comes when we stop assuming who is “different” and start recognizing that the difference might be us.https://www.aboveandbeyondwithu.org/https://www.instagram.com/aboveandbeyondwithu/If you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with [email protected] 526 1530

Karen Hale Purpose Seeker

After spending the first 50 plus years of my life trying to be like everyone else I finally chose myself. My journey has taken me up and down some hills and valleys that provided me a perspective on life. What I have learned and I am continuing to learn is that I AM OK and I don't have to attempt to look or act like anyone else. My uniqueness is what makes me shine and my confidence had grown 100%. As a podcaster, blogger, and coach I am helping myself and others face this imperfect world and making it the best place in the universe. If I can touch one other person through my stories or sharing those of others I have achieved success.
