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
