For me, there is no better way to celebrate International Day For People With A Disability than elevating other disabled voices.  In partnership with The City of Melbourne, this episode was recorded live at the 30th Anniversary Disability Discrimination Act Forum. At the forum number of lovely people shared their thoughts with me about International Day For People With A Disability.

I loved talking to Liel. They are such an interesting person. Liel belongs to many communities, the disability community, the LGBTQI community and as an immigrant to Australia. All of which meant this is such an informed and nuanced conversation of the meaning of belonging and identity.  Connect with Liel:  Liel's website: https://lkbridgford.com Liel's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lielkbridgford/?hl=en The (Un)marginalised Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast Connect with Peta: Instagram: @petahooke Website: www.icantstandpodcast.com Email: icantstandpodcast@gmail.com Episode Transcript: https://www.icantstandpodcast.com/post/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As a person who uses a wheelchair, music festivals are the last place where I would think I would feel pride for my disability. Not so for Brianna Paauwe.  Brianna had an altering car accident 11 years ago. It wasn't until attending music festivals and feeling a part of a community that she found her purpose to help people.  She now works for a foundation that supports people with disabilities, including through the world's first fitness app, made for wheelchair users by wheelchair users.  Connect with Brianna:  Instagram: https://instagram.com/bribabe16 Website: https://www.wheelwithmefoundation.org/ The Fitness App: Wheel With Me Fitness Connect with Peta: Instagram: @petahooke Website: www.icantstandpodcast.com Email: icantstandpodcast@gmail.com Episode Transcript: https://www.icantstandpodcast.com/post/  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fiona is one of the most positive and resilient people I've ever met. From growing up in a country town where her disability was ignored rather than accepted. To the loss of a parent and how she has grown to love who she is, exactly as she is.  Connect with Fiona:  Fiona's website: https://fionademark.com.au/ Fiona's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/blind_inspirational_speaker/ Connect with Peta: Instagram: @petahooke Website: www.icantstandpodcast.com Email: icantstandpodcast@gmail.com Episode Transcript: https://www.icantstandpodcast.com/post/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
