Olivia Muenz Disability Bandwidth

In the sixth episode of Disability Bandwidth's second season, we spoke with Olivia Muenz, a disabled writer from New York, about her personal journey toward receiving a diagnosis and how her disability has influenced her writing. Olivia shared with us her experiences of how her disability has shaped her perspectives and motivated her to pursue writing as a means of expressing herself. We delved into Olivia's use of an academic lens to explore disability in a unique and artistic way. Our conversation with Olivia was inspiring and enlightening, and we hope that our listeners find her perspectives on disability to be as engaging and thought-provoking as we did.
