✨ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗢𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 ✨
In this episode of 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁™, Winter sits down with 𝗦𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗵 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝗲 for a conversation about vision, resilience, and what it takes to build a community from the ground up.
For 30 years, Sarah has been building something most people said couldn't be done — a world where adults with autism and intellectual disabilities don't just survive, they belong. It started with a question every parent fears: "Who will take care of my child when I'm gone?" Sarah didn't just answer it. She built it, brick by brick, farm by farm, across South Carolina.
𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
🌿 The London internship that started a 30-year movement
🏡 Oak Tree Farm — community living that actually works
💼 Why 65% of her clients work full or part-time (and still need your advocacy)
📍 The bold plan to replicate this model across South Carolina
❤️ The loneliness epidemic — and how nonprofits are fighting back
One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is that real inclusion isn't charity — it's infrastructure. Homes, jobs, and community, built to last.
🎧 A powerful conversation for leaders, advocates, and anyone who believes everyone deserves a place to belong.
