Episode 10: Alison Tedford Seaweed
Hello everyone!
Welcome to the 5th and the last episode of our second season and the 10th episode overall of our podcast “Why Access Matters”.
In this episode, I talked to Alison Tedford Seaweed. Alison is an Indigenous Relations consultant based in Abbotsford, BC.
In this conversation, she shares her valuable thoughts and experiences regarding her commitment to working alongside Indigenous
communities, people, and cultures to create transformative change and its intersectionality with her lived experience as an entrepreneur with disability.
And also about how social determinants of health impact the experience of disability for Indigenous persons. She emphasizes the diversity within
Indigenous communities and how cultural beliefs, worldviews, and language shape perspectives on disability.
There is a vital opportunity to learn from each other cross-culturally and to reflect on how various aspects of our lives contribute to our experiences with health and wellness, including their barriers and disabilities: June is Canada’s National Indigenous History Month, and there are lots of programs and activities that would be perfect opportunities to learn more and listen to Indigenous voices!
The next episode will follow in the upcoming fall, but in this break, please:
- Send us your thoughts and ideas
- Follow our fabulous guest on LinkedIn and
also her website
- Don’t forget to introduce us to your friends, family and
network!
Please feel free to share your feedback and suggestions with us by sending an email to: [email protected]
