Over the next few weeks, prior to the release of Season Two, I will be releasing some bonus episodes for you. From the top, I just want to say that these may not be everyone’s cup of tea. However, if you are a caregiver to, or an individual with a rare disease, disabilities, or complex medical conditions, you may find these episodes to be very comforting and informative. I also feel that these episodes will be extremely relevant to any and all professionals who work with the community of people with disabilities - including my fellow disability-podcasting peers.
In line with today’s bonus episode, I would like to share a little more about academic Erica turned to podcast Erica. I was a first-generation, non-traditional, undergraduate student - meaning I felt very old when I finally had the chance to complete my college career in psychology at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. I had the hard-earned privilege of being an honors student and last year I was honored to have the chance to complete an undergraduate honors thesis. This was a unique opportunity in which I was encouraged to take many creative liberties, which I feel I absolutely did. I was responsible for creating and conducting the research myself under the guidance of a thesis advisor and I have to say that I struck gold the day Dr. Sandy Pensoneau-Conway excitedly agreed to be my thesis advisor and has now become a lifelong mentor, I hope she’s ok with that.
