Daily Life

Hi! I’m Jermia (@_mia.mi), a 29-year-old sports junkie in Dallas. I was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy II at the age of 2 and have wheeled my way through life’s challenges with a smile. SMA is a degenerative muscle weakness that has left me wheelchair-bound and often limits how much, besides walking, I am able to do for myself. Rather than letting my limitations hold me back, I’ve accepted the challenges head-on and still find ways to enjoy life while also seeking to encourage others to push through. I’ve found myself doing the same things that able-bodied people regularly do such as traveling, driving, and attending music events among other things. I currently work in sports media and about 2 years ago. I created my own sports podcast called HotTakeSzn (@its_hottakeszn). A scripture I hold dear to my heart is Philippians 4:13 which says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. When life says “you can’t”, just know that you can!

Collapsible text is perfect for longer content like paragraphs and descriptions. It’s a great way to give people more information while keeping your layout clean. Link your text to anything, including an external website or a different page. You can set your text box to expand and collapse when people click, so they can read more or less info.
