In this episode of the Goosed Podcast, we sit down with Shelley Cowan, affectionately known as The Purple Lady—a powerhouse advocate creating real change in the world of accessibility.
Shelley shares her journey and the origin stories behind:
JustUs – a not-for-profit helping adults with disabilities enjoy safe, inclusive social lives,
TravelEase – highlighting the best in hospitality for disabled travelers,
Access Avenue – working with businesses to improve accessibility standards from the ground up.
We talk about the hidden truths of ableism, the shocking fact that more hotels are pet-accessible than disability-accessible, and why inclusion shouldn't be an afterthought. Shelley is living proof that passion, empathy, and action can reshape the world.
