THE COMPLEXITIES OF DISABILITY
REBEKAH TAUSSIG

Rebekah Taussig, aka @sitting_pretty, joins me to crack open the disability narrative. And when I say crack open I do mean delve into stereotypes, limitless potential (of course) and the beautiful nuanced stories Rebekah shares in her bestselling book Sitting Pretty

I’m not going to lie Rebekah’s book brought me to tears. It will forever have a place in my heart.
