Living With A Brain Injury Raising Our Voices

Lisa, Larissa and Julie speak about living with a brain Injury (ABI).  Lisa, Larissa and Julie are all different but share a common experience of acquiring a brain injury.In this show, they challenge the so-called 'tragedy' of ABI, letting listeners know that living with an ABI is not a tragedy or inspirational. They also chat about the 'social model' of disability and the term 'inspiration porn'.They also discuss the isolation people with ABI often experience, and how self advocacy and connecting with others in the ABI and disability community can reduce this isolation.Image Artwork by: Larissa MacFarlaneMusic: Johnny Crescendo Choices and Rights
