"There is Life Beyond Disability"
Welcome to the team Ava Marie
“Hey y’all. I’m Ava Marie—your new front-porch welcome, storyteller-in-chief, and occasional truth-teller. I’ll be popping up on YouTube to share stories, spark conversations, and remind you that life’s a whole lot sweeter when you show up exactly as you are. And when I’m not on YouTube, you’ll find me over in the Onward Motion Academy—teaching, learning, and getting into all the good stuff with y’all.”
*DONATE*
Your donation helps us rewrite the story—one where disability isn’t the end, but the beginning of something extraordinary.
Because there is life beyond disability—and who better to lead the way than those living it?

Author Tara Richardson
Since childhood, my limited mobility fueled a rich fantasy life. While other children played outside, I created magical worlds with my constant companion and artistic muse, Saraphina Fae. My mother nurtured my imagination and creativity, I transcended earthly restrictions my mind traveled to fantastical frontiers far beyond the boundaries on earth. Lost in realms of my own invention, I was no longer confined; instead I moved freely, carried aloft by the unlimited potential of fantasy and inspiration.
Mission Statement
Onward Motion Mission Statement
At Onward Motion, our mission is to empower and uplift individuals with disabilities through storytelling, adventure, and real-world support.
We believe disability is not a limitation—it’s a different path to power. Through inspiring videos, interviews, and firsthand experiences, we spotlight stories of resilience, grit, and unshakable spirit.
Our goal is to shift the narrative—away from “what’s missing” and toward what’s possible.
We invite our audience to focus on strengths, independence, and bold dreams, proving that obstacles don’t define us—how we rise does.
Through our nonprofit branch, Onward Motion HELPS, we provide tangible resources Onward Motion is more than a non profit—it’s a movement.
A community of trailblazers redefining what it means to live boldly with a disability or chronic condition. We’re here to remind you: life doesn’t end at diagnosis or injury. Sometimes, that’s exactly where the story begins.
