Creating a Disability Inclusive World: Conversation with Tiffany Yu, Author of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto

"I kept getting the question, ‘How can we show up better for the disability community?’ And depending on who you are, the answer is different. That’s why I wrote a book about it. I hope this book can contribute to the conversation, not just about policy change, but about shifting hearts and minds, perspectives, and attitudes around disability." - Tiffany Yu, Founder & Author

This podcast is for everyone.

Yes, it is!

I bet you know someone who lives with an invisible condition. Or perhaps you live with an invisible condition (chronic illness, disability, or disease).

Dealing with an invisible condition (or multiple ones) can often feel lonely and isolating.

You might prefer to keep your problems and thoughts hidden, especially if you have experienced discrimination or judgment in the past when you have tried to talk about the condition you live with.

As a caregiver, you might experience anxiety, anger or exhaustion—but feel guilty about expressing that to the people around you.

If you are a friend, co-worker, or relative of someone who lives with an invisible condition, you might feel uncomfortable about asking questions.

When you listen to this podcast, you’ll see that the guests do “get it”.

They are everyday people who have overcome their fear of sharing, to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered. By sharing their stories, they hope to create a more compassionate and inclusive society.

Each episode will leave you encouraged, hopeful, and inspired to step out of fear and embrace your normal.
