Inclusion is our Love Language

February 12, 2021 in Disability & Inclusion - No Comments

Inclusion is our love language.

Normally, when I discuss inclusion, the idea is that it’s 100% beneficial to only the person who’s differently abled.

That they will be the only one to positively benefit from the adaptive and inclusive measures.

That only Callie will be positively impacted by the changes made.

But in reality, ALL people are better off when they can do life along side someone that’s differently abled.  It teaches us compassion, empathy, how to relate to each other and how to help each other.

It teaches us how to listen, provides a different perspective and lens for us to see the world through, and it gives us an environment to navigate through some (sometimes) difficult and awkward discussions.

It allows everyone to be their own unique selves.  It allows us to embrace all that we are and recognize all of our worth.

And that maybe……those people who do life differently might actually be the ones that have the most to teach US.

For the women blooming in unexpected places…..

For the women blooming in unexpected places…..

Hi Y'all

Hi, I’m Jaime — writer, mother, storyteller, and the heart behind The Wildflower Edit. For nearly a decade, I wrote online as The Princess and the Prosthetic, sharing my daughter’s journey with disability and the lessons our family learned along the way. It was a beautiful season — full of advocacy, connection, and community — but as my daughter grew older, I felt a shift. She deserved more autonomy. More privacy. More room to decide how she shows up in the world. And I realized something else: My own story was expanding too. Motherhood was still here. Disability was still here. But so were grief, healing, womanhood, nervous system care, feminine energy, homemaking, identity, softness… the fuller, deeper pieces of life that were ready to be spoken aloud. Whether you come for the cozy routines, the motherhood reflections, the disability advocacy, or the soft life inspiration — thank you for choosing to share this space with me. Pour a warm drink. Settle in. Let’s grow a life that feels like you again.
