Episode 1: The Ally That Changed Everything featuring ABLE2 Match Michael and Mike

For years, Michael lived with agoraphobia, or fear of open and crowded spaces, almost all his life. During the pandemic, he shares that these feelings of loneliness and isolation heightened even more, which shaped his daily reality. Isolated from the world and unsure if meaningful connection was still possible, everything changed when he met Mike through ABLE2’s Matching Program. 

In this powerful first episode, Michael and Mike share how their match grew into a friendship that helped Michael slowly step outside again, from short moments on his balcony to standing among 17,000 people at an Ottawa Senators game. Transcript available here.
