Claiming Disability Podcast Launch

Claiming Disability is a new, weekly Instagram Live series; the series' hosts, Erin Kay and Mollie Miller, want to take their message of disability empowerment to larger audiences in the podcast space. Claiming Disability is more than a clever show title, it is a movement, a battle cry to strong and determined men and women who wear the label of 'disabled' like a badass badge of honor. Erin and Mollie are two attractive, working professional women who have Cerebral Palsy and both use mobility devices (wheelchair/walker). "We know that living with a disability isn’t easy -- between the heartbreaks of inaccessibility, prejudices, and chronic pain -- and can mean working hard to create space in the working world and to be seen and heard everywhere else in our communities. Our hope is that the Claiming Disability podcast will bring fresh perspectives as we add our voices to the disability advocacy conversations. The podcast will educate and inspire listeners as women AND men, in different stages and phases of life, proudly claim their disabilities, share their stories of overcoming challenging circumstances, and use their differences to make a big difference in people’s lives. Our listeners and guests will feel seen and heard and create connections within their fabulous disabled community.
