In this timely episode of Remarkable World Commentary, Donna J. Jodhan reflects on her show’s evolving format, then zeroes in on a pressing question. Do today’s mainstream insurance products truly protect people with disabilities. She surveys the crowded landscape of policies, from home and condo coverage to life and fire insurance, and argues that too many offerings still lack the relevance and muscle needed to address disability-related realities. She calls for agents and companies to deepen their awareness, to design coverage that actually matches lived needs, and to meet customers where they are.
Donna situates the issue within a rapidly aging population as more people join the disability community. She urges listeners to push insurers and brokers for better protection and wonders whether targeted legislation might be required to accelerate change. She closes by inviting feedback and stories from the audience so the conversation can continue beyond the episode.

In this practical episode of Remarkable World Commentary, Donna J. Jodhan looks at why real estate agents need better awareness training to serve clients with disabilities. She connects the dots between a rapidly aging population, the supply of truly accessible homes, and the responsibility of developers and agents to know where accessible properties are and what features they must include. Donna spells out concrete checks. location convenience, step-free entry, kitchens with reachable counters and storage, bathrooms and hallways wide enough for wheelchairs, and space that works with mobility aids.
She urges agents to understand accessible equipment and appliances, from doorbells to washer and dryer setups, and to talk candidly about cost and practical workarounds. The aim is collaboration among developers, agents, and the disability community so buyers can actually find homes that fit their needs. She closes by inviting listeners to share experiences and questions by email so the conversation can drive real change.
