Danielle Connolly: How to have disability pride and advocate for treatment with a rare disease


Listen Later

Danielle Connolly is a rare disease and disability advocate, content creator, and business and marketing professional. Being born with a muscle disease, that still has an unknown origin after twenty-nine years, has given Danielle many unique life experiences that set the course for her various ambitions. After she took her first vacation with friends as an adult, she realized that she is more capable of traveling than she realized. Upon returning from the trip, she swiftly got her own mobility scooter and started planning more adventures. The idea of documenting these adventures and giving accessibility reviews came about, and then many other ideas for content and series (such as “Breaking the 4th Wall of Disability”) followed.
