Description
In this inspiring episode, Melissa talks with Anna Matthews and Sam Seidel from Erin’s Hope for Friends, an organization dedicated to fostering lasting relationships for autistic teens and young adults through their e’s Club program. They discuss the importance of service—not just as philanthropy but as daily support—and how thoughtful design can promote mental wellness and address sensory needs. Melissa shares her personal journey and the profound impact of those who have shown her family servant-hearted kindness, and shows why service is woven into the fabric of the BD Studio Collection company culture. Together, they explore how we can see ability, not just the labels of disability, and address the critical gap in resources and opportunities for autistic individuals as they transition into adulthood. Prepare to be inspired by Anna and Sam’s stories, wisdom, and unwavering dedication to fostering understanding and belonging for all.
