You're ready to stop fighting your disability. Now what?

You've read about the 9 statements that signal acceptance. Maybe you recognized yourself in some of them. Maybe you're still working through others.

Either way, you're ready for what comes next.

How To Accept A Disability As A Beginning

Accepting your disability doesn't automatically make life easier. You still wake up with the same body, the same challenges, the same questions about how to move forward.

The difference is that now you're not fighting against yourself anymore. That opens up space for something powerful: building an actual relationship with your disability.

Not tolerance. Not grudging acceptance. A relationship.

That's how you start getting answers.

What If Your Disability Could Become Your Ally?

I know that sounds ridiculous right now. Maybe even insulting.

But here's what I've learned through 40+ years of living with cerebral palsy and adapting to new levels of disability almost every decade: your body will never fully cooperate with you if you treat it like an enemy.

The guide I've created walks you through seven specific ways to shift from surviving your disability to genuinely working with it. These aren't platitudes or toxic positivity. They're practical approaches I've tested through my own reinventions.

Inside the Guide, You'll Discover:

How to honor what you've lost without getting stuck there, so you can actually move forward instead of cycling through the same grief.

The five superpowers that disability fast-tracks, including why your limitations might be setting you up for deeper success than you'd achieve without them.

How to manage your energy using traffic light task lists and chunking methods designed specifically for bodies that don't work on demand.

Why most self-help advice is toxic for people with disabilities and how to filter out the harmful messages that keep you stuck in self-blame.

This Guide Is For You If...

You've moved past denial and anger about your disability but still feel lost about how to actually live well with it.
You're tired of advice that doesn't account for your physical limitations and leaves you feeling like you're not trying hard enough.
You want practical strategies that work with your body, not generic inspiration that ignores your reality.
You're ready to stop comparing your life to what it was before and start building something that works now.

About Etienne - that's me!

I started Rising Disabled after dreaming about it for years. Even today, there are very few resources for people living with disability who want help beyond medical care. We are more than just bodies to fix.

Each time my abilities changed, I managed to reinvent myself into a newer, happier version of myself. Looking back, I know that if I'd had a coach by my side, it would have spared me a lot of confusion and pain.

I want to be that coach for you because I believe life still has so much to offer you, and you have so much to offer this world.
