    Apr 24 2025

    In this powerful and heartfelt episode, we sit down with Doug Vincent — a lifelong advocate, broadcaster, and community leader whose story is one of perseverance, purpose, and impact. After contracting polio as an infant, Doug was told he’d never walk or live an independent life. Instead, he proved everyone wrong.

    From discovering his love for broadcasting through the KiiS Broadcasting Workshop to becoming the voice behind Walk and Roll Live, Doug has spent decades shining a spotlight on disability advocacy, community building, and inclusion. As a board member of Anthesis, Rolling Start, and the Volunteers for Veterans Foundation, Doug’s commitment to service has inspired many.

    We talk about his journey through childhood surgeries, his early days in radio, his service with Kiwanis and the Inland Empire Car Club Council, and his unwavering dedication to uplifting others. Doug’s passion and authenticity make this episode an unforgettable tribute to resilience and the power of voice.

    Tune in and be inspired. This is one ride you won’t want to miss.
