Welcome to the very first episode of All Abilities, No Filter! In this special kickoff, we introduce you to the voices behind the mic — Jake, an educator and program director; Lilly, a compassionate therapist; Brandon, a knowledgeable BCBA; and Hannah, a recreational therapist turned administrator. We’re coming together from different professional backgrounds with one shared mission: to create a space where real conversations happen about autism, disability, and everything in between — without the sugarcoating. In this episode, we share the story of how we met, why we started this podcast, and what listeners can expect moving forward. You'll get to know us, our passion for advocacy, and our excitement about the topics ahead. Whether you're a parent, a professional, or someone navigating life with a disability, we’re here for the tough conversations, the laughter, and the real talk that often goes unspoken. 🧩 Let’s start this journey together — no filter needed.
