Only Human Podcast

In 2012 I suffered a life changing spinal cord injury leaving me with 15% muscle function but an open mind, asking new questions and igniting a newfound perspective, passion for life, health, relationships and meaningful work. As a speaker and pharmacist I am motivated to help others live more healthful, purposeful, courageous, fulfilling lives. Join me as I explore the journeys of people finding the magic in the messiness, everyday heroes and leaders they share insights and perspectives to inspire us to take action, be more present and to live fully.

    EP38 - Diverse Ability, not Disability

    I’ve been avoiding making this episode. I don’t necessarily believe in disability, I believe in people and people have diverse abilities. The thing that enables or disables any individual is the environment in which they exist. The legal, cultural, social, physical, mental, emotional environments we live and work in are the places that either dampen our potential or allow us to flourish. Check out this short episode to hear my thoughts. Only Human Podcast is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc and is produced by Evan Balfe 🎤 Until next time, stay well, stay curious.

    EP35 - Permission To Be Human

    It has been a while. We all need to create space sometimes to process, that doesn't mean we always give ourselves what we need. My absence on the podcast over the past few months was an act of self-care. All will become clear. I hope this episode moves you, moves you in a particular way. In a world where there is so much comparison, resentment, expectations and judgements I hope it gives you a little more permission to be human. To be where you are, to let go of the things that don't serve you, to allow yourself embrace the things that do and most of all to give yourself permission. This episode is an exploration of the themes that worked for me in 2020 that I want to bring forward with me. This episode is a reminder, me giving myself permission to be human.
