In this conversation, Sean and Kyle discuss the concept of advocacy and its various forms. They reflect on their experiences with advocacy, from meeting with legislators for rare disease-related issues to everyday interactions. They emphasize the importance of not staying silent and making one's voice heard, whether it's through legislative meetings, social media, or personal interactions. They also acknowledge the power of raising awareness and challenging perceptions of disability by expressing yourself in whatever way you choose.
