Unfiltered Kat Wells is a podcast about soft courage, access, and building a life that actually fits you.
I’m Kat Wells — a non-verbal disabled woman, moving through the world in my electric wheelchair with a stubborn amount of determination. I use tech, text and tools to “speak”, and I’m sharing what it really looks like to fight for independence, joy and stability on my own terms.

In each episode, we explore:
• Living at your own pace when everyone wants you to “keep up”
• Communication beyond speech — devices, presets, scripts and boundaries
• Disability, care and ambition without pretending it’s easy
• Tiny, realistic actions (soft courage) that move your life forward

You’ll hear reflections, micro-practices and honest stories designed to be gentle on your energy but powerful for your mindset. Every episode comes with a full transcript so you can listen, read or skim in the way that works best for you.

If you’ve ever felt “too slow”, “too much”, or like people talk about you more than they talk with you — this space is for you.

Unfiltered Kat Wells is here to remind you: You are not late. You are not less. Your pace is valid — and it’s yours.

]]> Kat Wells Buzzsprout-18949436 Thu, 02 Apr 2026 11:00:00 +0100 44 1 trailer false Care Is Not Optional Care Is Not Optional We tell the real story of what five months of care instability does to a disabled life when direct payments are put on hold and everything becomes “under review”. We name the hidden cost of being misrepresented, forced to translate reality into admin language, and still having to fight for dignity, safety, and stable support while we are still living inside the fallout. 
• why care is not an optional extra but the structure that makes life possible 
• what direct payments are and why delays create immediate risk 
• the difference between support on paper and support in practice 
• how instability affects sleep, stress, epilepsy, safety, and capacity 
• how summaries and “professional” narratives flatten truth and shape decisions 
• why disabled expertise should carry authority over outside interpretation 
• the invisible labour of documenting, correcting, escalating, and staying credible 
• myths about routines, “reasonable” options, gratitude, and being labelled difficult 
• dignity as a practical need threaded through communication, continuity, and trust 
Share it with someone who needs to hear what disability, care, and dignity can actually look like behind closed doors. Share it with someone who still thinks care is just a service. Share it with someone who needs to understand that instability lands somewhere. Share it with someone who needs to hear disabled truth without the smoothing over.
