This conversation goes where disability conversations often don’t —into the quiet, heavy places. We talk about depression. Anxiety. The mental and emotional toll of disability that so often gets overlooked once the hospital stays end and the equipment is delivered. Our guest is Mike Kent , a Disability Life Coach and the founder of Empowering Disability , a global community of more than 9,000 members who are navigating life after injury, trauma, or diagnosis. Mike’s work goes far beyond motivation. Through Empowering Disability and MPower Coaching , he helps people confront anxiety, rebuild confidence, and rediscover their sense of worth—especially in the aftermath of life-changing events. He understands that the hardest battles aren’t always physical. But this conversation doesn’t stop in the darkness. Mike challenges us to look deeper—not at what was taken, but at how we respond to the cards we’re dealt. He reminds us that while disability may change the path, it does not erase purpose, value, or the ability to build a meaningful life. His message is clear and powerful: Disability is not the end of life. It’s an invitation to reclaim life—on our own terms. This is an episode about honesty, resilience, and the strength it takes to keep showing up when the world feels smaller than it used to. If you or someone you love has ever struggled with the mental weight of disability, this conversation is for you.
