Welcome Jan H to Green Mountain Disability Stories! Jan H. lives in Southern Vermont, and in this episode, she tells her story of living with multiple chemical sensitivities to Emerson Wheeler, Health Equity & Community Engagement Coordinator at the Vermont Department of Health. Jan talks about how Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or ME/CFS affects her options for housing, employment, healthcare, and just about every facet of her life. She also shares what other people can do to advocate for themselves as well as make it easier for her and other people with ME/CFS to be included in their communities. "I want to say something to the people who *don't* have this condition, who aren't bothered by it, who don't think it really affects them. First of all, if you're involved in a business that touches the public, and you're using fragrances -- either personally or in the cleaning of the facility -- you're limiting access for a certain number of people. You're gonna feel like it's impossible to get rid of all the fragrance in the facility. It feels really huge? But I would want you to not feel that way. Don't look at this Mt. Everest of things, look at the small things. Because every single thing that you change is going to help some small portion of the people. Don't start with the people who come into your facility -- I agree, it's super hard to control the people. Start with the processes of the business." https://lnkd.in/egFDgjM3 #DisabilityInclusion #Storytelling #MECFS

The ABC needs serious management intervention, as a people we have a right to unbiased and balanced reporting of News and Current affairs.

If you follow me, then you'll probably know by now that my recent Why Care? conversation was with Tegan Summer. There's no doubt that his time as a 'producer who is Black' offered a unique perspective on representation in theatre and the experiences of underrepresented groups. In this article, I reflect on impact that performing arts can have on sharing different narratives: https://lnkd.in/dk6fMCaX I explore the representation of diverse voices in the arts, and how art is at the heart of driving change, or as Tegan puts it ”theatre [is] the equaliser in diversity.” We need to normalise healthy narratives around diversity, challenge internal biases, and learn to empathise with the pain of underrepresented communities. My new book Beyond Discomfort: Why Inclusive Leadership is so Hard (and what you can do about it) dives into poignant topics like these and more: https://lnkd.in/e6XGjpKg If you have already read it, please can you take a few minutes to rate and review it on Amazon or Good Reads. #DiversityandInclusion #InclusiveLeadership #BeyondDiscomfort #CompleteInclusion #dei #edi #diversity #podcast
