What happens when the world starts seeing you through a label—but you refuse to let that label define you?
In Episode 5 of The Clarity Lens, Laura Spale sits down with Brandon Parkes, aka Professor Parkes, for a conversation about life after becoming disabled, navigating life from a wheelchair, and finding purpose in the unexpected.
Brandon brings a perspective that goes far beyond disability. Through humor, gaming, advocacy, and community, he has built a platform that creates awareness while reminding people that a diagnosis, a disability, or a circumstance is only one part of someone's story.
This conversation explores resilience, identity, accessibility, mental perspective, finding joy in the middle of hard things, and the importance of looking beyond the label to see the person.
Because sometimes the biggest shift isn't changing the circumstances—it's changing the way we see them.
