This episode is all about self-advocacy in the podcast space. We've all heard someone say that the last thing we all need is another podcast, but we respectfully disagree! We discuss why the self-advocacy of people with disabilities is vitally important, and why the podcast medium is perfect for sharing experiences, normalizing disability, combating stigmatizations, and advocating for a better, more inclusive society.
After a brief discussion and spotlighting of a few podcasts to add to your library, Tricia DePalatis sits down with Emily from the podcast Expert Tips from ADEC Self Advocates. Emily shares her experience starting a podcast, the connection it's helped foster within her local community, and why the podcast is so important to her.
