Say How Values
DIGNITY OF RISK: We believe in growth through experience. Everyone deserves the opportunity to try, fail, learn, and thrive.
ASSESS, THEN ADDRESS: We begin by listening, observing, and understanding before proposing solutions. Real change starts with real insight.
INDIVIDUAL READINESS: We honor where each person or system is starting from, and tailor support to build momentum from that place.
AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE: We ground our work in what’s real, respecting lived experiences, cultural context, and genuine voice.
REALISTIC OPPORTUNITIES: We don’t chase perfection—we co-create practical, sustainable pathways to access and inclusion.

Founder’s Story

Joslynn Bigelow is an educator, Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), and adaptive sports leader with over 17 years of experience in inclusive programming.

She is the founder of Say How Consulting, President of the United Adaptive Soccer Association, and an award-winning advocate recognized for her leadership in U.S. Soccer. Joslynn brings a unique blend of academic training, lived experience, and practical coaching to every collaboration.

Say How Consulting was founded to close the gap between intention and implementation in disability inclusion. Joslynn saw too many well-meaning individuals and institutions struggling to move past barriers because they didn’t know how to take the next step.

SHC was created to provide that ‘how’ – with practical tools, experienced insight, and a commitment to equity.

In Memoriam: Ryan Kenneally

Joslynn’s work is deeply shaped by her friendship and professional collaboration with the late Ryan Kenneally – an advocate, strategist, and creative – whose brilliance, humor, and insight left an indelible mark on SHC.

Ryan’s partnership not only expanded SHC’s capacity, but also profoundly sharpened Joslynn’s vision of what inclusion could look like when approached with honesty and innovation.

His passing in 2025 was a devastating personal loss, but also a turning point. It fueled an even deeper commitment in Joslynn to drive systemic change across every space she touches – whether in soccer, education, or beyond. SHC continues to honor Ryan’s legacy by embedding his spirit of possibility and purpose into every action.

A cherished friend and co-architect of SHC’s vision. Ryan’s influence continues to shape the heart of the work we do every day.
