You may not have a physical impairment, but you have things, whether it's finances, self-esteem, it doesn't matter. It's cut from the same cloth.

I'm currently doing a Soul Pancake show called Top of the Monday, which is basically a good morning news show. It's just me being silly, telling people about good news that's going on in the world, putting them in the mood to start their week.

I do a lot of conferences, and I did a campaign with the Cerebral Palsy Foundation called Just Say Hi. They get celebrities to record little messages about how you start a conversation with someone who has a disability, which is to Just say hi.

There's a whole chapter about my unfortunate manscaping accident. I was so focused on, I've got to look this certain way and do this to be ready for this. So I missed out on a lot.

I haven't spoken to Oprah herself. She had so much going on, since her network show was wrapping up at the time we were shooting. I can't fault her for that.

Even if you have an ADA room, every disability is so different that people need different things. A lot of times they'll put something on the toilet to make it higher, and for someone transferring from their chair that's fine, but I transfer from the floor so it causes more problems.

Nothing like quoting Silence of the Lambs for people to question what kind of disability you have.

CP is a struggle, but it's also been quite the tool for me to find success and deliver a message. It's something about me that's unique, so it'll open a few doors as well as keep a few closed. If you have the other tools that you develop as an individual, talents, things like that, you can harness this to do positive things in the world.

Everyone who was here [Sheraton Universal Hotel] when I won still works here, so the two biggest moments in my career are intersecting. It's so cool that I can say hi to everybody.

We'd done a couple of road trips with my big chair, and it was such a hassle if we didn't have the van with the foldout ramp. I figured: There's got to be some option that I can use on the go. Now I can go anywhere with my friends, which is a big, life-changing thing. I can sit on it for as long as I need to.

I think that's where it comes into play, when you are just looking at a document or whatever and you see the word disability. Does that automatically trigger something in you that denies someone their personhood?
