About Me – The Average Joe
Hey there—I’m Joe Weber, the guy behind The Average Joe. I’m not a doctor, scientist or life coach—just a regular guy trying to figure things out one blog post at a time. I live with Multiple Sclerosis, which adds a layer of unpredictability to daily life, but also gives me a unique perspective on everything from mobility to mental health.
​
Here, I write about what’s real—dealing with MS symptoms, navigating accessible travel (shoutout to Disney cruises), building LEGO sets to help with motor skills, and figuring out how to keep a dog with epilepsy happy and safe. I also talk a lot about preparedness—whether that’s prepping for a power outage, finding the right mobility aid, or understanding how your car battery works. And yes, I still mow my own lawn when I can—it's good exercise and oddly therapeutic.
​
When I’m not writing, I’m usually out at the shooting range. Shooting has become one of my favorite hobbies—it helps with focus, provides a great mental reset, and honestly, it’s just fun as hell. Most of my car battery and emergency preparedness content lives over on my professional blog at BatteriesPlus.com/blog, where I cover everything from jump-start tips to storm readiness and energy solutions.
​
If you’re looking for a place where you can laugh a little, learn a little and maybe feel a bit more seen, you’re in the right spot. No sugarcoating, no hype—just real talk from an average guy with a slightly complicated life and a whole lot of curiosity.
