Mentorship, Mobility and Knowing When to Use a Wheelchair: With Jane Wardlaw

In this episode, Peta speaks with Jane Wardlaw about mentorship, mobility, and the deeply personal decision of when to start using a wheelchair. Jane shares her lived experience of growing up with muscular dystrophy, navigating changing mobility, and how a wheelchair became a tool for safety, freedom, and possibility rather than loss. Together, they explore why mentorship matters for disabled people, especially when navigating identity, independence, and systems like the NDIS.   Connect with Jane: https://substack.com/@janewardlaw LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jane-wardlaw Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/janedisabilitylobbyist Connect with Peta Hooke: Instagram: @petahooke Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@petahooke Website: www.icantstandpodcast.com Email: [email protected] omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
