Taylor’s Bali Adventures 🌴
In her 30s, Taylor has been navigating life with a strong focus on independence and self-discovery. From her initial shared living in a Supported Independent Living (SIL) to transitioning into her own home, going to Bali on her own was the next big thing planned for Taylor. With the support of her team, she’s gained the confidence to embrace new challenges, pursue her passions, and ultimately take control of her life.
For years, she’s worked alongside her support workers to build the skills and courage to chase her goals—big and small. Whether it’s exploring hobbies, or setting her sights on major milestones, her team has been there to guide and cheer her on, always respecting her choices and empowering her to take the lead.
Her dream to visit Bali was a bold one. Traveling solo and organising every detail of her trip might have seemed daunting, but for Taylor, it was the next step in proving to herself that she could do anything she set her mind to.
TAYLOR: “Society tried to confine me to a box labelled “disability”, but I refused to be defined by anyone’s limitations, not even my own. I’ve spent many years advocating for equality, for the right of every person, regardless of ability, to live a life of their choosing. And part of that quality of life, for me, meant pursuing my dream of visiting beautiful Bali.”
Taylor’s support team played a vital role, not in doing things for her, but in encouraging her to take ownership. They helped her navigate the complexities of booking flights, securing a passport, and planning her itinerary, always stepping back to let her shine.
TEAM LEADER LAUREN: “Taylor’s Bali trip was about more than just the destination. It was about helping her see what she’s capable of and watching her grow through the process. Our role was to provide encouragement and guidance, but Taylor did all the heavy lifting.”
For two weeks, Taylor lived her dream. She spent her days exploring Bali with her family, wandering through vibrant markets, soaking up the sun by the pool, and enjoying every moment of the island’s beauty. It was a trip that she planned and made happen on her terms—a true reflection of her independence and determination.
TAYLOR: “When I landed in Bali, it felt like stepping into a dream. Two weeks of family, relaxation, and exploring everything this beautiful island has to offer. From lazy days by the pool to bustling local markets, it was everything I hoped for and more.”
Taylor’s Bali adventure is just one example of how Unisson’s approach to support encourages individuals to live life their way. As Taylor continues to set new goals and break boundaries, her team is there to support her every step of the way, ensuring that her journey is uniquely hers.
Next on the horizon? Taylor’s already thinking about her next adventure—and with her unstoppable spirit, it’s sure to be just as exciting as her time in Bali. 🌺✈️
