What happens when support you rely on is at risk?
In Episode 75 of Wellbeing Interrupted, I speak with disability advocate and NDIS participant Jarrod Sandell-Hay about the upcoming changes to NDIS pricing—and why they matter so much.
Jarrod shares how Allied Health support has helped him stay well and independent, and why cuts to services could mean people miss out on the care they need. We talk about what’s changing, what it means for those living in regional areas, and how people with lived experience often feel unheard in decisions that directly impact their lives.
This is a powerful reminder that these changes are personal—and that speaking up matters.
