In this episode, I interview Carden Wyckoff –– who transformed her own experience with a genetic mutation causing muscle dystrophy into a movement for greater accessibility as an advocate for those with disabilities. At nine-years old, Carden was diagnosed with a rare case of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. Rather than let her condition limit her potential, she has only propelled forward and become a force to reckon with. You have probably seen her in Atlanta Magazine and USA Today for her wheelchair tour of Europe with the intention of exploring firsthand how other countries approach accessibility. BTW, anyone know the UGA arch tradition? You can thank Carden for her advocacy to make it accessible for graduates with disabilities. In this interview, we discuss all that and more, like her work at the government level to promote accessibility policy, her own emotional journey, dispelling disability stigmas, her call to action for allies, empathy v. sympathy, her strength, and most importantly, her visionary mindset for growth and the betterment of society.
