Alex Wegman is one of our absolute favorite people on (and off) the internet.
She’s a writer, storyteller, homeschooling mom of two, and a lifelong wheelchair user who tells stories about life at the intersection of disability, parenting, friendship, and generally existing in public.
Everything she shares has deeply impacted how we approach parenting. So we’re thrilled to have her as our first guest on Scratch That!
