Accessibility, what is it all about? For people with disabilities, this means being able to lead a self-determined life.

Editor's note:

Our guest Aaron Wahl was considered unable to work in his early 20s. He was later diagnosed with Asperger's. In Hamburg, Aaron then worked with a physically based training method that was originally developed for actors, but is also intended to promote the strengths of autistic people. The training is explicitly not a recognized therapy and is therefore controversial in its use in autistic people.
