Being Helpful, Not Hurtful?! How to Support PWDs Right | Zelocast: Glow with the Flow Ep.31

Welcome to Episode 31 — and yes, it’s a special one because we’re celebrating Zyana’s birthday! 🎉 (The cake is imaginary, the vibes are real, and Ben’s birthday gift is still… pending 👀) This episode dives into a topic that affects everyday life: How can the public support persons with disabilities — without making things awkward, uncomfortable, or accidentally hurtful? We talk about what actually helps, what doesn’t, and why good intentions sometimes miss the mark. Along the way, there are laugh-out-loud moments — like the time Alex was on a train and genuinely thought a group of strangers was Zyana talking to him… because their voices sounded exactly the same. Awkward? Absolutely. Funny? Also yes. 😂 In this episode, we break down simple but powerful tips, such as: • Saying a person’s name first when speaking in a group • Why a gentle tap on the shoulder or cane works better than shouting “hello” • How to offer help without assuming it’s needed • The right way to guide someone (hint: please don’t lift our white canes 🙏) We also share how we “see” the world differently — through sound, texture, and even smell. Yes, Subway has a very specific scent, and Peninsula Plaza has a whole personality. Most importantly, we remind our friends in the PWD community too — don’t go full “action mode” when help is offered. Kindness works best when it flows both ways. With patience, communication, and empathy, we can make public spaces more inclusive for everyone. We wrap things up with a fun round of “Where Are We Now?” with Chantiq — because no episode of Zelocast: Glow with the Flow is complete without a game. Together, we make a difference. Win or lose, we’re still champions. 🏆✨ 👉 Like, comment & subscribe to support inclusive conversations and PWD voices in Singapore.
