Turning Adversity into Advocacy: A Conversation with Puneet Singhal on Building Inclusive Communities

Have you ever felt defined by your limitations? Our guest in this episode, Puneet Singhal, certainly has. Growing up with a stammer, he knows firsthand what it's like to feel different, misunderstood, and judged. But instead of letting this define him, Poonit turned his adversity into advocacy, founding SSStart and becoming a global ambassador for Billion Strong. He's turning heads, challenging societal assumptions and working towards normalizing stammering as a disability. 

In the journey of SSStart, you'll discover the power of community and resilience. Even with limited resources, this organization has managed to make a significant impact and build a strong community of empowered individuals. But this isn't just about stammering; it's a broader conversation about inclusivity and acceptance, celebrating our differences rather than fighting against them. The goal? A truly inclusive world.

What happens when we replace competition with collaboration? When we trade a scarcity mindset for a growth mindset? Puneet Singhal shares his insights on the importance of partnerships in the disability and charitable sectors. He paints a picture of how connecting with international networks has helped spread the word about their cause. And we discuss the power of community in enabling SSStart to grow and thrive. So, tune in, get inspired, and join the conversation on challenging societal perceptions and empowering individuals with disabilities. This is a story of resilience, empowerment, and community support you won't want to miss.
