Welcome to another episode of Vita with Alita! We are slightly shifting gears this week! Instead of bringing you a scientific paper to discuss, I am going to use my own observations and experiences volunteering with individuals with intellectual disabilities to draw on 10 lessons that I have learned from them to enhance my life. I look forward to sharing my positive experiences with you and I hope that my personal interactions inspire you to to look at life from a different perspective and better appreciate individuals with intellectual disabilities.

I am happy we can share this journey of levelling up, together. See you next week!
