Join us for the brilliance of Professional Geek Amy Hogan, she'll make you rethink and reframe disability, and help bridge that gap between the experiences of a parent of a disabled child and the experience of the disabled person themselves. After the usual catch up with Sarah and Lucy, Rachel talks to Amy about the limitations of interventions like physiotherapy and the need for mental health support for parents and children processing a life they hadn't imagined. She discusses the outcomes we really should be focusing on with our children, as well as challenging concepts around disability and helping us to confront our own (and other people's) Ableism. There is SO much we cover, that we've had to split this episode in two. Join us on Friday for our bonus episode where Rachel, Sarah and Lucy reflect on the magnificent wisdom of Amy.

 In this deeply moving and wide-ranging conversation, Tiffany Yu — CEO and founder of Diversability and author of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto — joins Chedva to unpack what it means to live, lead, and love in a world not built with all bodies in mind. Tiffany shares her powerful journey from childhood trauma and societal shame to outspoken disability advocate, community builder, and proud disabled woman. Together, she and Chedva explore identity, grief, community, the labor of disclosure, and what it really takes to ask (and answer) better questions. With humor, honesty, and vulnerability, they discuss how disability isn't something to fix, but something to understand — in ourselves and in each other. This episode also touches on the nuances of being perceived as “inspiring,” the cultural shift around visibility, and what happens when we stop hiding and start naming our truths out loud. Key Topics: The “second origin story” of disability: from shame to self-acceptance to ownership What makes a question inclusive — and what doesn't The hidden labor of showing up with visible or invisible disabilities From Wall Street to advocacy: how Tiffany built community in every chapter Inspiration vs. objectification: the danger of “inspiring by existing” What pride looks like after trauma, loss, and healing The evolving language of neurodivergence and identity The power (and politics) of naming — ourselves, our needs, our truths Building access into everything — including your own work and rest Joy as resistance, biking as healing, and naming your bike “Stanley” Me → We → Us: how transformative change begins at the personal level Notable Quotes: “Community was always the through line. Before I was a disability advocate, I was a community builder.” “Disability is not something to fix. It's an identity, a culture, a perspective — not a problem.” “I had to unlearn that I was broken. And learn that I get to take up space.” “Be curious — but respect boundaries.” “If you took disability out of the picture, would you still describe that person as inspiring?” “We need curiosity that connects, not curiosity that intrudes.” Tiffany's Powerful Question: “What's something that brought you joy recently?” Resources Mentioned: The Anti-Ableist Manifesto by Tiffany Yu Diversability Stella Young's TED Talk: “I'm Not Your Inspiration, Thank You Very Much” Emily Ladau, disability advocate Dreamers & Doers Community Get access to CuriosityGPT — your strategic thinking partner in question form Join The Curiosity Lab to explore identity, values, and direction in the face of life's fog

Movie reviews #51
seven today so let's go
1. Airport 1970. This one started them all. To me it's just a less funny movie than airplane movie, but still funny. You don't get the icky pedophile jokes, but you do get asshat men who live to cheat and cheat to live, this had a nice rad woman surprise that I am quite grateful for. Airport stars Helen Hayes!!!!
2. Scarecrow 1972. Many many 70's films are based on plays, this one basically just filmed a play. Great Black Metal premise here with a story by Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet letter guy. Blythe Danner, and Gene Wilder are here, and there's a witch too. 
3. Earthquake 1974. Heston is here, this movie was not great. I had fun with friends, a lot actually. Heston is a shit but the Star Crash guy takes on bullies, and flippin Shaft is a rad stunt cyclist.
4. The Little prince 1974. This one's trippy and fun, and we get our 2nd Gene Wilder appearance in this batch. You also get jazz hands Bob Fosse himself here as the snake. I always get this movie confused with the Gumby episode The Small Planets, and wonder where the screaming clay piano boy is.
5. Girlfriends 1978. Claudia Weill is our director here, in a coming of age film that should be more popular than it is, shrug emoji. We get the sole survivor woman from that trippy movie I love called Sole Survivor. Lots of great actors here including the guy who wrote Stonehenge.
6. Sergeant Matlovich vs. the U.S. AirForce. This gets added to our list of super amazing made for TV movies of the 70's, also Matlovich was real and fierce AF. Brad Dourif plays Leonard Mattlovich, and you can watch him and his mustache in this gem on you tube. A must see for those interested in Queer history.
7. …And your name is Jonah 1979. Intense TV Movie about a misdiagnosed Jonah, he is deaf and the shitty times and an even shittier Teacher and Dad make it flippin hell for this poor kiddo. Important to show where we were and where we should be with this country's Ableism. Sally Struthers is here along with the asshat Dad played by asshat James Woods.Thanks fer listening friends. Please oh please give us stars and a review, thank you.

What does it really take for a medical facility to be truly accessible? Not just in design, but in attitude, system, and practice. Through the lived experiences of patients like Chris Layne, who saw her access to care shift dramatically after becoming a wheelchair user, and Dawn Russell, with a lifetime of experience with a developmental disability, who finally experienced equitable care at Tepeyac Community Health Center, we see the consequences of inaccessibility and the impact of doing better. This storytelling documentary shows a reimagining of what is possible for healthcare facilities and how they can truly become the “gold standard” of accessibility.

Send us a textThis chaotic and hilarious episode of Not Well marks the return of Bobby and Jim after a whirlwind spring that included a trip to Ireland. They catch up on everything from skincare and sugar daddy dreams to bizarre road rage incidents and unhinged homemade driving signs. The centerpiece is their unforgettable Irish adventure—drunken nights in Dublin and Galway, being “cut-shamed” at a gay bar, dealing with horny 20-year-olds, and falling in love with Irish lads, butter, and unbothered pub culture. Also covered: PDA shaming, gay-coded pocket watch obsessions, airport nightmares, contact lens trauma, and the trauma of being the oldest in the club. With their trademark irreverent humor, they deliver a jam-packed download of nonsense, insight, and gay travel trauma.Support the showAs always you can write us at nowellpodcast@gmail.com or call us at ‪(614) 721-5336‬ and tell us your Not Wells of the week InstagramTwitterBobby's Only FansHelp us continue to grow and create amazing content, like a live tour or just help fund some new headphones when needed.

Healthism is everywhere—but most of us don't even know it has a name. In this powerful episode of Thrive Beyond Size, Dr. Michelle Tubman unpacks the hidden force that turns health into a moral responsibility and worth into a measurement of discipline. From the praise of weight loss at any cost to the judgment we place on food, movement, and rest, Michelle explores how healthism intersects with fatphobia, ableism, diet culture, and systemic injustice.You'll learn where healthism shows up in everyday life, why it's harmful, and what it looks like to push back—without giving up on yourself or your well-being. This is a must-listen for anyone ready to reclaim body autonomy, soften perfectionism, and redefine what care really means.In this episode, you'll hear about:What healthism is—how how it subtly shapes our beliefs about food, bodies, and self-worthHow it shows up in medical settings, social media, and daily conversationsWhy the pursuit of “health” can become harmful and shamingThe link between healthism and diet culture, fatphobia, ableism, and traumaWhat it looks like to care for yourself without subscribing to health as a moral mandateHow to reclaim body autonomy and offer yourself compassion instead of judgmentResources & LinksLearn more about Wayza HealthFollow Michelle on Instagram @wayzahealthListen to previous episodes of Thrive Beyond Size here

Religious trauma is real—and for neurodivergent folks, it can leave especially deep marks on body image, food, and self-worth. In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Victoria Leon, ASW (@victoriarleon), a therapist who specializes in supporting people healing from religious trauma and eating disorders. We explore how faith communities can reinforce shame, control, and compliance—and how that intersects with masking, sensory sensitivities, and the drive to “be good” that so many neurodivergent people carry. Whether you're deconstructing, disentangling from toxic theology, or trying to reclaim a safe relationship with food and your body, this episode offers validation, insight, and a path toward gentler healing. ✨ CW for discussions of religious trauma, disordered eating, and spiritual abuse.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Tina Loarte-Rodriguez speaks with nurses Dr. Sabrina Ali Jamal-Eddine and Andrea Dalzell about their personal journeys into nursing and the challenges they faced navigating disability and systemic ableism.

Send us a textIn this chaotic pre-vacation catch-up, Bobby and Jim return after a brief hiatus to unpack their lives before jetting off to Ireland. From skincare obsessions and Spirit Airlines horror stories to hot dentist encounters and the psychology behind sounding "too gay," the duo dives headfirst into everything. They rant about billionaires in space (screw you, Katy Perry), the illusion of economic wins, and the prison industrial complex. There's also a heartfelt moment reflecting on internalized shame in the gay community—and naturally, some dick talk and drunken bathroom confessions. Buckle up.

Jessica Slice, author of Unfit Parent, shares her profound insights and experiences on disability and parenting, breaking down stereotypes, addressing ableism, and showing what disabled parents can teach us all about resilience, adaptability, and embracing life's challenges.Full Show NotesIn our conversations around parenting, we often have a narrow definition of what abilities and physical capacities are required to be a “good” parent. From movies and advertisements portraying mothers and fathers effortlessly multitasking and holding toddlers on their hip, to parenting talks describing the chaos of carpool lines and daily errands, the portrait of parenting we encounter every day seems to leave out those with disabilities or physical limitations. As a parent, what do you do when your experiences don't match up with these cultural representations? How can each of us benefit from broadening our understanding of what it truly means to be an effective caregiver?In today's insightful episode, we're joined by writer and disability advocate Jessica Slice, author of Unfit Parent: A Disabled Mother Challenges an Inaccessible World. Jessica became disabled at age 28 and has experienced firsthand how our cultural perceptions about motherhood often exclude people with disabilities. Through her writing and advocacy, she passionately argues that disabled parents have powerful insights to offer all parents, and she exposes the ableism and biases in parenting culture. Jessica's eye-opening perspectives invite us to consider how embracing a broader definition of parenting can benefit everyone.What Disabled Parents Can Teach All of UsEarly in our conversation, Jessica describes how attending a typical parenting talk left her feeling like an imposter because none of the descriptions matched her own parenting reality. In writing openly about her experience, Jessica discovered a community of disabled parents who shared similar feelings. But what began as a revealing essay soon transformed into a broader mission: to show how disabled parents actually contribute unique abilities and insights to parenting.Jessica points out how disabled people grow adept at solving practical day-to-day problems surrounding movement, food, rest, and more. Such problem-solving skills translate directly into caring for a newborn, making disabled parents often surprisingly adept at navigating early parenthood. Moreover, disabled parents have already learned powerful lessons in letting go of expectations, embracing uncertainty, and adapting to changing circumstances—qualities that deeply serve all parents as they navigate the complexities of raising children.Ableism and Our Culture of Fear Around DisabilityJessica thoughtfully unpacks ableism: the deep-seated, often unconscious biases and fears that lead society to view disability through a lens of pity or disdain. She explores how ableism shapes everything from medical care to reproductive rights—and even the way parenting itself is structured and evaluated.One of the episode's most fascinating discussions focuses on Jessica's research around early transitions into parenthood for non-disabled families versus disabled families. Remarkably, Jessica discovered that disabled parents tend to adjust far more easily and report fewer incidences of postpartum depression—despite often facing greater physical health challenges. She explains how our cultural fear of disability makes this early period harder for non-disabled parents: society conditions us to dread having bodies that are weak, fragile, or dependent on others. Disabled parents, meanwhile, have already accepted and adapted to these realities, making the transition less shocking and chaotic.Overcoming Barriers in Parenting SystemsThroughout our interview, Jessica candidly describes how social systems and institutions—from reproductive health practices to the foster care system—are often ill-equipped for disabled people. She discusses the enormous challenges and fears disabled parents face when navigating the foster adoption process, including inaccessible mandatory classes and intense scrutiny about physical fitness to parent. Despite these obstacles, Jessica demonstrates the incredible resourcefulness and creativity that disabled parents show in developing customized solutions for caring for their families.Jessica's story about becoming a parent through fostering and surrogacy illustrates poignantly both the systemic barriers disabled people face and their impressive capacity to advocate for themselves, adapt, and thrive. She insists that disabled parents' lives are not tragedies to be pitied; instead, they exemplify adaptability, patience, and the courage to embrace life's unpredictability.In the Episode…Beyond these deeply insightful conversations, our discussion with Jessica covers much more, including:How Jessica's disability shifted her perspective from striving and achievement to genuine contentmentThe critical importance of accessible and inclusive sexual education for disabled teensThe ongoing practice of invention and creativity disabled parents rely on to accomplish everyday caregiving tasksThe connection between productivity, capitalism, and society's attitudes toward disability and human worthJessica challenges and expands our cultural notion of what it truly means to be a capable, loving, and effective parent. Her journey offers invaluable lessons, not only for the disabled community, but for parents everywhere.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. In today's episode, we dive into a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of marketing: disability representation and inclusive messaging. Host Sara Payne is joined by Kelsey Lindell, founder of Misfit Media, a trailblazer in helping brands improve their disability representation in health, wellness, and social impact campaigns.Kelsey shares her personal journey and experiences, highlighting how advertising can unintentionally perpetuate ableism even in well-meaning campaigns. She emphasizes the need to rebuild trust with audiences that have been marginalized by traditional marketing narratives. Her new workshop series, "Shaping Perception," aims to educate marketing leaders on the nuances of inclusive and equitable advertising practices.Thank you for being a part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it.Key Takeaways:Understanding Bias in Advertising: Kelsey Lindell stresses the pervasive nature of ableism in advertising. Even campaigns designed to be inclusive often fall into language and visual traps that reinforce stereotypes. The discussion centers around recognizing and eliminating these biases to create genuinely inclusive messages.The Economic Argument for Inclusivity: Disability-inclusive advertising isn't just an ethical imperative—it's a business opportunity. Kelsey highlights the significant spending power of disabled individuals, stating their representation in advertising is starkly underdeveloped. Brands stand to gain by authentically engaging with this vast audience.Effective Workshops and Training for Change: Kelsey's workshops, like "Shaping Perception," offer foundational insights into effective disability representation. These sessions are essential for creatives across all levels, providing interactive experiences through real ad evaluations and strategic discussions on avoiding ableist narratives.Reframing Disability in Health Messages: In health care, empowering language often backfires with disabled and chronically ill communities. Kelsey advises replacing clichés with narratives that respect the lived experiences of individuals, focusing on allyship rather than unwarranted optimism, thus enhancing authenticity and connection.Frameworks for Inclusive Marketing: Kelsey introduces various models—medical, charity, and social—that shape how disability is represented. She advocates for the social model, which pushes for societal adjustments rather than "fixing" individuals, underlining the importance of building a society that accommodates all abilities.Explore Kelsey's insights and learn more about shaping marketing strategies that matter. Embrace the chance to make a real difference by understanding and involving one of the most overlooked yet impactful communities in today's marketing landscape.

In this episode, Ash and Dusty delve into the concept of internalized ableism, particularly as it relates to individuals with ADHD. Prompted by listener feedback regarding the use of paper plates, they explore how societal expectations can pressure ADHD individuals to avoid accommodations that might support their daily functioning. Both hosts emphasize the importance of recognizing personal limitations and offering oneself grace during challenging times, illustrating their points with relatable anecdotes about managing executive dysfunction and the weight of self-judgment. The conversation also highlights the significance of understanding one's unique needs and circumstances without falling into an all-or-nothing mindset. Through examples like dealing with household challenges and making choices about sustainable living, Ash and Dusty encourage listeners to embrace imperfection and prioritize self-compassion. Ultimately, they empower individuals with ADHD to permit themselves to make choices that may seem less than ideal but are necessary for their well-being and productivity.

While I doubt any of us would purposefully cheer on ableist behavior in our daily work, what if I told you that you may be secretly promoting ableism every single day? This week we do some tough reflection on the medical model that most of us work within and how it may inherently dismiss the environmental factors at play in determining the impact of disabilities on individuals' lives. And while we're boosters of the neurodiversity movement, is it possible that their critiques might be going too far in regards to ABA? Hot buttons will get pressed in this episode!

In this flashback episode, Dr. Jessica Hogan and I delve into the world of neurodivergent affirming assessments and the necessity for accessible, empathetic support for neurodivergent individuals.Key takeaways:The Paradigm Shift in Neurodivergence Awareness: Dr. Hogan emphasizes the importance of ongoing work for neurotypical clinicians to be affirming, addressing internalized ableism, and fostering a paradigm shift in understanding and accommodating neurodivergent individuals.Challenges and Visibility in the Workplace: We discuss the increasing visibility of neurodivergent and autistic clinicians and the hurdles they face in disclosing their neurodivergence. Authenticity, cultural competence, and collaboration are crucial for effective assessments and building trust with clients.Empowering Self-Diagnosis and Community Inclusion: Social media platforms are revolutionizing the way individuals relate to their neurodivergence, promoting self-discovery, and encouraging self-diagnosis. Dr. Hogan advocates for joining the neurodivergent community and seeking validation, without always requiring formal assessments.Listen to better understand creating accessible, affirming, and life-changing assessments for neurodivergent individuals.More about Jessica:Dr. Hogan (or Jess, whatever) is an auDHD licensed clinical psychologist in Minnesota and California, where she owns her own practice.

This week on That Was Wild, Adam Macias and Bethany Michaels dive into some of the most mind-bending stories of the week. First up, we unpack the Gifted Intelligence Program of the '90s, which might've secretly been a CIA training program. Sounds like a wild conspiracy theory, right? Well, former GATE students are now wondering if they were unknowingly trained for covert missions. From Morse code worksheets to speaking Russian as a ten-year-old—what were they really preparing us for?

Send us a textThis episode dives into a chaotic mix of topics, kicking off with an absurd discussion about government spending on transgender mice before spiraling into an existential rant about sleep routines. The struggle of putting in a mouthguard, earplugs, and taking melatonin like a nightly pre-flight checklist is real, and the resentment toward winter laziness is reaching peak levels.Travel plans are a big theme, with talk of Amsterdam and Ireland outfit planning. The dilemma of picking the right aesthetic—whether it's brat summer green or something grungy for Amsterdam—sparks debate. There's also a revelation about the Netherlands and Dutch culture that, frankly, still doesn't make sense.Political chaos enters the mix with a breakdown of recent headlines, including a theory that there's a reason certain politicians act the way they do (cough Putin's leverage cough). A wild detour into the topic of the Epstein flight logs and why certain names keep appearing leads to some theories that are both hilarious and deeply disturbing.There's a rant about how Americans are perceived in Europe, with complaints about restaurant etiquette, slow service, and the European aversion to smiling. Apparently, asking for the check too soon is considered rude, but no one wants to acknowledge that sitting in a restaurant for three hours might not be for everyone. The general feeling is that some of these cultural differences are fair, but some are just unnecessary.A spicy travel story unfolds involving a random European encounter that may or may not have been flirting. The confusion of reading signals abroad is real, but the experience of being semi-hard in a Barcelona cooking class is apparently universal. There's also an official manifestation of meeting hot Irish rugby brothers, because why not dream big?Discussions about American history take a dark turn, with some brutal truths about how things really went down. The way Thanksgiving is framed in schools doesn't quite hold up, and there's a moment of horror at realizing how bad things actually were. The idea that early settlers ate each other when times got tough is casually thrown in, as well as the absurdity of how tobacco basically built an empire.The episode ends with more travel struggles, including an encounter with a less-than-friendly European shopkeeper who was not amused by a lost tourist wandering in with Google Maps open. The realization that Europeans aren't necessarily rude, but just different, is setting in, even if some customs still make no sense.Support the showAs always you can write us at nowellpodcast@gmail.com or call us at ‪(614) 721-5336‬ and tell us your Not Wells of the week InstagramTwitterBobby's Only FansHelp us continue to grow and create amazing content, like a live tour or just help fund some new headphones when needed.

Maybe it's the lousy Smarch weather, but we're in a bit of a mood to start of this month. Not because our special guests aren't awesome. We had so much fun learning about qualitative analyses in exploring RBT burnout with Dr. Nicole Gravina and how to be more ethically responsible in creating meaningful goals for autistic adolescents and adults with Dr. Shanna Bahry. And not because we're not reviewing tough issues like turnover in human services, deconstructing ableist practices in the medical model, and respectfully disagreeing with the abolitionist neurodiversity critique.

Disability is not a niche issue—it's a reality for 60 million Americans. Yet, systemic bias and stereotypes continue to exclude people with disabilities from conversations about inclusion.
