Ep. 207: Ableism, empathy and creating a higher quality of life while living with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome CFS - Able zine founder Claudia Walder
This week’s guest is London-based Claudia Walder, fashion stylist and founder of Able, a magazine created for disabled people.
When Claudia was 23 and working as a stylist she began to experience some health problems that eventually became incredibly debilitating. Six months later she was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).
In this episode Claudia shares her experiences, how she had essentially had to nurture herself, why she started Able Zine and why she's taking a break. We also discuss the importance of perception and representation and the intricacies of labelling an illness 'invisible'.
