Episode description

In this powerful episode of Walk and Roll Live, we welcome Pilar Cole, a survivor of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by a gunshot wound to the head. Once unable to walk or speak, Pilar defied the odds through relentless therapy and unwavering determination. Today, she’s a passionate systems change advocate for an independent living center in Riverside, California, fighting for the rights and independence of people with disabilities.

Join us as Pilar shares her incredible journey of survival, resilience, and advocacy. We’ll discuss the challenges she overcame, the strength she found in forgiveness, and how she’s using her experience to empower others in the disability and domestic violence survivor communities.

This episode is a testament to the human spirit—don’t miss it! Walk and Roll Live
