"Anti-Ableism and Advocacy: Not a Solo Mission" with host Jennifer (Jenna) Barnable.

In this bonus episode mid-way through Season 1, Jenna shares more about her personal journey with disability, the profound impact of ableism, and what drives her advocacy and activism.

Jenna speaks about the complex, systemic environmental and attitudinal barriers she has faced and witnessed in a society that disables people further with its stigma, barriers and inaccessibility.

She discusses the challenges faced by people living with non-apparent disabilities, the societal stigma surrounding disability, chronic illness and neurodivergence, and the importance of community allyship in dismantling ableism (also known as disability discrimination).

Through her experiences, Jenna highlights the need for greater awareness and education around disability and calls for collective action to join together in advocacy to create a more inclusive world for all people, regardless of their abilities or health status.
