Meet Elina Passant.
Elina, a 21 year old young woman, is an Australia Youth Co-Designer and Health Consumer Representative using her lived experience of multi-complex illness, disability, deafness, and vision loss to help create more inclusive projects and systems across the country. 
With a passion for creativity in all forms she designed her apparel line, Chronic Youth Australia from bed with the intention of funding a future resource library for youth who are no longer able to take part in their old passions and hobbies so they can find new adaptable outlets that are both energy-friendly and fulfilling.  Ultimately to bring small bursts of joy in-between the heavy.

Context:
What would a world look like where we can be inspired by every person? 

Usually we are very quick to compare and judge ourselves and others, and when we do that everybody is losing. Depending on my point of view, I can either feel small because I come out lacking; or arrogant and dismissive because I feel superior. Those are the only 2 options. And neither of those options make us feel good

Here is our thought: Someone's everyday normal is someone else's extraordinary. Judgment comes from first impressions. We invite you, the listener, to go beyond first impressions, and see the magic everywhere. 
There is inspiration at every corner - in everyone, if we are willing to look.
