This is an encore episode while I focus on my teaching.
This week's guest is Mindy Sheier.
I titled the show "Life's a Road Trip" because as I've matured and dealt with suddenly becoming a quad amputee, that's how I see life. For Mindy, designing clothing for such movers and shakers as INC and Saks Fifth Avenue had her on cruise control.
And it just so happened that her son, Oliver, who is on his own Muscular Dystrophy road trip, wanted to wear jeans like everyone else but nothing on the market met his needs. It didn't take much for Mindy to shift gears into the adaptive clothing market.
Yes, Oliver got his jeans and the disability community received a fashion advocate who is blowing the doors off the clothing industry with her company, the Runway of Dreams Foundation (Link).
Mindy isn't afraid to rev the engines of society either. Check out "Time to Adapt" HERE.
She also hits high gear with "Getting Intimate with Disability" HERE.
Oh, yeah, Mindy has another means for moving the speedometer, visit GAMUT Management HERE.
That "Whoosh!" that just passed you was Mindy Scheier.
