Abounding & Alive S1 E8 - Michelle - Overcoming Adversity

Today's guest is the perfect example of inspiration, resilience and breaking down stigmas.
For her whole life, Michelle Steiner was told that she was never going to succeed. College was out of the question. She wasn't going to do well in life. The teachers, learning support workers, college professors and even a psychologist [who were all supposedly preparing her for her future] chose to tear her down instead. Why? Simply because she has learning disabilities.
But Michelle chose to ignore the negativity and went on to have a successful career, a blog, and a passion for photography and writing. She broke out of the box she was constantly put into. Today, she helps seventh grade students as an EA in Pennsylvania, where she can being a living example of what happens when you quiet the noise and pursue your dreams.
