Brooke Millhouse

Brooke Millhouse, Host of the Disabled & Proud Podcast, is a testament to the fact that all adversity can be overcome when one has the determination and willpower to do so. Motivated to represent the disabled community, Brooke champions inclusivity in society. As a seasoned keynote speaker, she speaks on topics related to diversity and inclusion, representation and equal treatment of all people regardless of their different abilities.

Brooke’s disability is the least important or interesting thing about her, as she often confirms through her incredible work. An Adaptive CrossFit athlete, Brooke recounts that she never saw anyone who looked like her attempting CrossFit when she took an interest in it. She took it upon herself to serve as representation for anyone else like her who needed an impetus to work out. Every day Brooke proves that physical limitations are not an impediment when it comes to reaching great success.

In a similar vein, Brooke created the Disabled & Proud Podcast. This is a platform through which Brooke addresses the challenges and experiences that the disabled community undergo. Brooke wants to ensure that the opinions and experiences of the disabled community do not go unnoticed or misrepresented. Through her work, Brooke creates space for the community to speak their truth and offer their valued perspective.

As an advocate for disability rights, Brooke is using her bold voice to champion her community. She is also using her platform to ask for changes on a fundamental level that will change the lives of disabled people in many ways. She lobbies for legislative changes, brings to front several accessibility issues and is calling for more inclusivity. Brooke Millhouse is the poster child for disability pride and she is happy to share her wisdom when booked as a speaker for a range of events.
