FEELDOM COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT - Episode 3

We were honored to spend some time chatting with disability advocate Gene Rodgers in this full-length interview.   Click Here for Podcast Audio.

Gene Rodgers, Author and Disability Advocate (1955-2023), was the author of his own exciting story, Awesome by Accident. As a teenager faced with a spinal cord injury, Gene overcame multiple challenges and pushed the limits of what he and his wheelchair could do.

Also an assistive technology developer and disability advocate, hear about the ways this extreme adventurer was willing to do whatever it took to live an awesome life and make the world a more accessible place in the process.

We are deeply appreciative of Gene's interview and touched by his adventurous spirit and dedication to improving the world for people with disabilities, one challenge at a time.
