When we picture disability, many imagine loss or limitation. Yet research shows many disabled people report high quality of life, sometimes even higher than non-disabled peers. This is the Disability Paradox, and it challenges us to rethink what makes a good life.

Disability is not one fixed experience, it is contextual. That truth sits at the heart of The Disability Force Framework, a model built to reframe how we understand and relate to disability in life, work, and leadership. It combines the Quadrant Model, a reflective tool, with the Coaching Model, a practical approach to performance and wellbeing.

The hard launch of The Disability Force today means stepping fully into this identity: a coaching and training business grounded in evidence-based practice, lived experience, and a clear, systemic model of disability. The Disability Force is not just about coaching. We deliver clarity, strategy, and confidence to:

Individuals navigating careers or entrepreneurship with a disability 

Organisations that want to do better but don’t know how

Accelerating Action: Disabled Women in Work & Business.

This year, International Women’s Day (IWD) 2025 calls for us to ‘Accelerate Action’ toward gender equality. Despite a roughly equal gender split in disability statistics, many disabled women find their challenges invisible in broader gender discussions.

On days like today, I like to add the additional barriers disabled women face, be it in employment, leadership, or entrepreneurship, as this is often an intersection that is left out of the narrative of days like today.
