Summary
Episode Three of Blind Abilities – The Musical explores what it really means to find your voice as you move from K–12 into college and on toward a career. The three acts set the theme, but the heart of the episode lives in the conversation—real stories about IEPs, learning to speak up in meetings, navigating disability services, and building access when the rules change. Cheryl, Seyoon, Lori, and Jeff share practical strategies for getting accessible books and materials, communicating with professors, managing deadlines, and using tools like screen readers, Braille, and modern tech to stay independent. The discussion also digs into disclosure, confidence in interviews, choosing a campus that fits your mobility needs, and building peer networks that help you succeed. Together, the music and lived experience show that advocacy is a skill you grow over time—and the more you use your voice, the more it carries you forward into college, work, and life.
