Description

In this inspiring episode of So Let’s Be Friends, Charlotte reflects on the life and legacy of Judith Heumann — the fearless disability rights advocate and author of Being Heumann.

Charlotte shares stories from Judith’s journey that remind us what it truly means to “act human” — to see people first, to stand up for what’s right, and to lead with love in every interaction.

Through laughter, honesty, and heart, Charlotte helps listeners connect Judith’s story to their own lives — reminding us that inclusion isn’t something extra; it’s the essence of being human.

💛 Charlotte’s Quote

“I wish people understood that disability isn’t something to fix — it’s part of who we are. Just like Judith said, it’s not about feeling sorry for us, it’s about seeing us as equals.”
