About this episode

Cole and Charisma Sydnor discuss their experiences in an inter-abled relationship and challenge misconceptions about caregiving and support.

Cole and Charisma Sydnor, known as “Roll with Cole & Charisma,” are digital creators with a global audience. Together, they share their lived experiences navigating life in an inter-abled relationship, challenging common misconceptions about disability, dependence, and support. From early relationship vulnerability to navigating public perceptions online, Cole and Charisma reflect on how caregiving has shaped (but not defined) their connection. They also discuss the realities of sharing their lives publicly, including boundaries, mental health, and the impact of online visibility. This episode unpacks how care exists in many forms—physical, emotional, and relational—and how it often flows both ways in relationships and communities. The conversation expands beyond romantic relationships to highlight a broader truth: caregiving is not limited to one role or identity. It is something we all give and receive throughout our lives, often in ways that go unseen. It is dynamic, reciprocal, and deeply rooted in connection. Easterseals is committed to meeting people where they are, with care that honors every role they hold. Learn more at easterseals.com.
