About this episode

This week Victoria is sitting down with Joci Scott, creator, actor, and Rollettes dancer. In 2019, Joci was paralyzed from the hips down in a plane accident. For the past four years, Joci has shared her story on social media, building a community of over 80k followers across Instagram and TikTok. She strives to maintain a positive mindset, create a community in the art world with organizations like the Rollettes, and pursue her goals as a performer.

Victoria and Joci are discussing Joci's path to educate people about disability awareness, creating more disability representation across media, and successfully navigating life's biggest changes from her accident to navigating family dynamics at your wedding. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to pursue their dreams while also managing life's unexpected challenges. Highly recommended!
