People with disabilities are devalued by society. That’s a fact. And that needs to change, because too many people are getting neglected, exploited and hurt. That’s where the Disability Royal Commission comes in. Since April 2019, the Royal Commission has been investigating reports of violence, neglect, abuse and exploitation of people with disabilities. In just over a year over 1,000 submissions have been made. One of which is Laura Lewis, one of today's guests on The Nasty Woman Club.

On today’s episode she spoke with The Nasty Woman Club host Demi Lynch about her experience reaching out to the Disability Royal Commission. During the chat Demi also spoke with two women that have helped Laura navigate her way through this difficult process. These women are Leigh Elliot from the Micah Projects. And Linda McKey from SUFY - Speaking Up For You.

Grace and Ruby only created their business SISTER SEEKERS a year ago and already they're kicking ass. They already run several workshops helping women on their journey to self love; they have released their own gratitude journals AND they have started this new thing called Chick Chats where they do these mini Instagram interviews with women from all walks of life and discuss self acceptance. The ladies hope to one day take their workshops to rural areas across New South Wales and hopefully even bring them into schools to teach teenage girls about self love.
