Description

 

On this episode, I sit down with Jessica Johnson, a 31 year old black woman with CP, doing her clinical residency to become a counselor in the state of Virginia.  We shine a light on ableism in her field, what it feels like to be the only disabled person in the room, trying to be disabled at work, independence, blackness and disability + so much more.  You’ll fall in love with her just like I did. Enjoy!

This is a podcast that looks at disability stories. it's like sitting down with a really close friend to have real conversations about disability, sexuality and everything else about the disability experience that we don't talk about; the things about being disabled we keep in the dark. The show is hosted by Disability Awareness Consultant Andrew Gurza.
