BABIES DOWN, BOTTLES UP

Keep it safety positive! w/ Amy SP Wilson and Erica Kress


Listen Later

We’re tackling a topic that doesn’t get talked about enough in our community—consent, safety, and self-advocacy.

In this episode, we’re joined by Amy SP Wilson, founder of the Safety Positive Foundation, a nonprofit organization promoting self-defense after her own experience as a domestic violence survivor, and friend of the show Erica Kress (aka Blind Barbie), a blind/visually impaired advocate, for a raw and necessary conversation about protecting ourselves and others, especially in blind and visually impaired spaces.

From navigating large events safely, to the importance of speaking up and reporting sexual assault, Amy and Erica walk us through the realities too many people face in silence. They open up about the kinds of conversations we need to have with our kids early—about consent, respect, and boundaries—and share specific, practical ways to stay aware and avoid dangerous situations, especially at blindness programs and events.

We also talk about what true allyship looks like in these moments, and how we can all be more prepared, proactive, and supportive when something doesn’t feel right.

It’s not an easy episode—but it’s an important one. Vulnerable, honest, and packed with information we all need to hear.

Press play, and let’s keep it safety positive!
