Growing up with spina bifida meant Bella Duarte-Crespo faced challenges most children never have to think about, including managing bladder and bowel incontinence at school. When she and her mother couldn't find a product that met her needs, they decided to create one themselves.

In this inspiring episode, Bella shares how a personal struggle became the foundation for a fast-growing business, a passion for design and a lifelong commitment to disability advocacy. Along the way, she discusses living with spina bifida, overcoming embarrassment, building confidence and why being prepared has become her key to living life without leaks.

Whether you're living with incontinence, caring for someone who is, or simply looking for a story of resilience and determination, Bella's journey is sure to inspire.
