251 - Rockin' A Cane Like It Ain't No Thang: Spina Bifida


Listen Later

This week the fellas have a chat with their new friend Mari. Mari lives with Spina Bifida! What's that you ask? Spina bifida is a birth defect that occurs when the spine and spinal cord don't form properly. We talk about accessibility issues, the skills of a self catheterizer, the hardships of finding employment while living with a disability, race and quality of healthcare and much much more! 

Be sure to check out Mari's episode of Employable Me
