Disabled and Proud

Brooke talks to Emma, the mother of a disabled child, about her experiences and insights. Emma shares her journey from pregnancy to raising her daughter, Dottie, who was born on her due date.

She reflects on the challenges of navigating the healthcare system and advocating for Dottie's needs. Emma discusses the importance of authentic representation of disability in media and the power of storytelling. She also touches on the struggles of self-care and the emotional toll of advocating for her daughter in various settings. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Advocating for a disabled child in medical settings can be emotionally challenging, but it is crucial to ensure the child's needs are met and their voice is heard. It involves being confident, determined, and prepared to stand up for what is best for the child.

Authentic representation of disability in media and storytelling is essential for empowering individuals and changing societal perceptions. It is important to tell untold stories and showcase the diversity within the disabled community.

Balancing self-care with the responsibilities of caring for a disabled child is crucial. Recognising when to take a break, setting boundaries, and surrounding oneself with supportive individuals are key aspects of self-care for a parent carer.

Questioning assumptions and biases about disability is important in advocating for a disabled child. It involves resisting harmful tropes, advocating for authentic representation, and challenging conflicting opinions from professionals.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think when she was first born. For the first sort of five months, we were in and out of hospital a lot. And it wasn't like we were told in that time, oh, she's disabled, or she has this condition, or it was sort of a really weird mix of what's happening, panic, sort of worry."

"I've definitely sort of evolved my thinking and perception of disability as a direct result of being Dottie's mum." 

"I think it's about having those conversations that you wouldn't necessarily normally have with your friends down the pub. Because actually, they're not going to be the ones that necessarily grow your mindset." 

"Sometimes some people aren't able to be saved. That is not a you problem, that is a them problem."

Brooke talks to Robert, a neurodivergent individual with dyspraxia and a cancer survivor, discussing his journey and experiences with disabilities. Robert shares insights on the lack of accessibility he faced during his cancer diagnosis and how it influenced his perspective on inclusivity. He delves into his inclusive design consultancy, Inclus, aiming to make consumer products more accessible for social minority groups. 

Together they highlight the importance of inclusive design and challenge the stereotypical perceptions of disability. Robert reflects on resilience and the need for a broader understanding of disability beyond visible markers.

• It's crucial to have empathy and understanding towards individuals with disabilities, avoiding assumptions and embracing diversity in disability experiences.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think that's such a poignant snippet and takeaway because it comes back to that well what what does disability look like and actually there is not a one-size-fits-all."

"I always found a way to be resilient and always found a way to then show up in a different way, in a way that then made people go, oh, it's quite impressive."

"It's all just people talking and that's it. It's not, it doesn't need to define your world, it doesn't need to define your experience."

Brooke has a candid conversation with Hannah, a guest who shares her journey of acquiring a disability in her early 20s and navigating life with chronic illness. Hannah discusses her experience with complex chronic illness, ME, and endometriosis, highlighting the challenges of being diagnosed and the stigma surrounding invisible illnesses. She reflects on the impact of her disabilities on her career choices and the process of accepting her authentic disabled self. The conversation delves into the differences in disability perception between the UK and the Netherlands, emphasising the importance of being able to show up as one's full disabled self. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hannah's journey of showing up as her full disabled self in Amsterdam highlights the importance of embracing authenticity and setting boundaries without feeling the need to conform to societal expectations.

Hannah's insight on grief being an ongoing and ever-changing process emphasises the need to accept and live alongside grief rather than trying to overcome it completely.

The comparison between the UK and the Netherlands in terms of prescription painkillers showcases the significance of a morally neutral approach to pain relief, allowing for more collaborative and sustainable treatment options.

Hannah's experience of living a slower-paced, authentic life in Amsterdam and inspiring her friends to reconsider their own lifestyles highlights the power of leading by example and sparking positive change in others.

BEST MOMENTS

"There's such a distinct before and now there's the people who knew you before you got sick, the ways you were, the things you did." 

"I think the one other thing I want to say about culture, which I think is quite important for people who live with chronic pain, is I find, at least in my experience, there's a much more morally neutral view to prescription painkillers."

Brooke talks to Martin Sibley, a guest who shares his experiences as a person with spinal muscular atrophy. The discussion delves into various aspects of Martin's life, including his childhood, schooling experiences, career journey, and the development of his marketing agency, Purple Goat.

Martin reflects on the challenges and triumphs he has faced, highlighting the importance of disability inclusion in the business world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Embracing contradictions and paradoxes, such as recognising personal traits while also striving for improvement, is seen as a valuable aspect of self-awareness.

In professional settings, there is a noted wariness among others to avoid saying anything potentially judgmental or offensive regarding disability.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think it's fascinating the the DUI strands, there's so many parallels and similarities that the more we can connect, the more we all have an even more powerful voice against oppressive forces." 

"0.06% of adverts feature disabled people and as we know there's like 20% of any given population has a disability so really Purple Goat is just looking to close that gap and then the benefits come off the back of that." 

"Two things can be true at once. And I was like, in my state of being like, we're very much deep into the woo-woo chat, like we're talking about life." 

"I once or twice, I got bluntly asked, can you have sex? And it was just like, hello stranger in a pub."

"I needed the help. I needed the support desperately."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Matt stresses the fact that it's important to challenge stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding disability, emphasising the need for more positive and diverse narratives.

The discussion sheds light on the barriers faced by disabled entrepreneurs, particularly in the disability space, where there is a prevalent assumption that disability-related work is charity-based rather than profit-driven.

The growth of the business, Sociability, has not only provided a valuable service for disabled individuals but has also instilled confidence and opened up opportunities for users, showcasing the positive impact of accessibility solutions.

Matt's journey as an entrepreneur reflects the resilience and persistence required to navigate the ups and downs of running a business, especially during challenging times like the onset of the pandemic.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think having a spinal cord injury, you know, becoming disabled and then having to learn and live with that through that period has very much shaped like who I am today and how I think about things." 

"I think the disability space particularly is one that has a lot of barriers around it." 

"I love hearing other people talk about what they're really passionate about." - Host
