Today you will meet Brad Bartko; we met through hospitality but in a different way than you may think. Brad came to us as he owns Disability: Accessible by Design, a company whose mission is to create a more accessible world for people with disabilities.

The experiences Brad has had in his life will change the way you see the world. When he was born, he came out fighting. He was born premature and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at age 2, setting him and his family on the path of figuring out life with a disability. 

Today Brad is a disability consultant who has lived experience. He is changing the way business owners and communities are building and renovating their spaces, but even more than that, he is connecting with their hearts and helping people who have not yet experienced disability in their life genuinely understand how they can create a space where everyone can feel like they belong.

I suggest you follow Brad on IG @Bradinspires and his business on Facebook at Disability: Accessible by Design. He is helping people become more empathetic and find a new way of doing business that is more inclusive for all. 

Thank you, Brad, for your time and for sharing your heart with the listeners today. I am grateful for you and what you do.
