Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians have a disability? Yet many people don't believe they know anyone with a disability.
​
Hi, I'm Peta Hooke. Think of me as your friendly girl next door who has a disability.
​
I have Cerebral Palsy and I was tired of being asked by strangers on the street "What happened to you?'
​
So I created The I Can't Stand Podcast.
To not only answer questions about living with a disability but also to bring in amazing disabled guests to hear what life is like for them.
